I believe this picture is of an r/c vehicle or some kind of toy. Can this idea be applied to real cars - shorten the half shafts of a front wheel drive car and connect the motor to the half shaft? or, if you can find a good deal on motors, do it to each of the 4 wheels of an awd or 4x4 car/truck? It eliminates the drive shaft, differential and transmission of the vehicle, found in most ICE's. It also eliminates the sprung weight issue found in hub motors. Is it reasonable?
