A modular variable pole electric motor system includes a stator, a plurality of modular rotors, and an inverter system. The stator includes a plurality of stator coils. The plurality of modular rotors include at least one modular wound field rotor, at least one modular induction rotor, at least one modular permanent magnet rotor, and at least one modular synchronous reluctance rotor. Each of the plurality of modular rotors is configured to be removably electrically coupled to the stator. The inverter system includes a plurality of switches, is electrically coupled to the plurality of stator coils of the stator, and is configured to be electrically coupled to a battery system and convert a direct current (DC) voltage from the battery system into alternating current (AC) to individually energize each of the plurality of stator coils of the stator.
