10hp continues or 10hp peek? my car has a 6hp continues rated motor in it but puts out around 45hp peek, my electric push mower has a half hp motor on it, the GE electrac tractors tend to have half to 3/4hp motors on each of their mower blades (one motor per blade) and it might take 1.5hp to drive the tractor around and up hills, but going a little larger seems like a good idea unless you want to add a cooling fan to the motor.
