A drive is the digital camera that harnesses and regulates the electrical energy sent to the engine. The drive feeds electrical power into the motor in different amounts and at various frequencies, thereby indirectly controlling the motor's acceleration and torque.
So the the majority of Electric Drive Motor economical choice will be a Three Phase Induction motor followed by a BLDC electric motor. I'd suggest 
BLDC ( for its huge marketplace penetration recently,ease of availability and easier electronic devices/control ) or PMSM (Long lasting magnet synchronous motors )
