Only part to move is the bearings which probably have a lifespan of several million kilometers. Only the suspension suffers from any appreciable wear ( they use motor breaking so the brake pads practically never need to be used). Tesla or any good electric vehicle is ultra low maintainance - all you need to do is recharge it each day.

Dude do you know how much your "permanent magnetic core" would cost? The answer is while I'm not sure, its A LOT.
I used to work in a motor shop for the gov't I saw a few of the new motor technologies, I also saw the price tag that came with them.
Those of you who are who are saying they are low maitanance and you only need to replace the brushes/bearings are very wrong. Actually, those bearings are a pain in the ass to replace you shouldn't make it seem so simple. I'd get more into it but I gotta run to work.
