A switched reluctance motor for an electric vehicle. The switched reluctance motor includes an inverter with switchable windings to control the inductance of the motor. The motor also includes a high speed and low speed mode corresponding to the inductance of the motor. The inverter may include parallel switches, selectively running current to the windings in order to control the inductance.
