It seems very good in theory but too optimistic. The whole concept is marketed on the basis that “it will avoid CV joints” but CV joints will be needed on steering axle anyway unless the car is RWD.
Also recommended to read the comments under the video, some great technical discussion there.

But the most replayed part of the video at 2:59 shows that the motor will be mounted on the chassis – hence the concept is different from the hub motor.
