Naw, because if you look closely in the video you can see that the motors turns with the wheel. With small EV motors that’s not unreasonable.
Presumably the motor is free to tilt up and down a bit as well to deal with changing camber.

I mean, it is pretty much a hub motor that has been decouple in the vertical motion so it doesn’t contribute to unsprung mass, and with a good reduction gear as a bonus.
