A drive is the digital camera that harnesses and handles the electrical energy sent to the electric motor. The drive feeds electrical power in to the motor in various amounts and at various frequencies, thereby indirectly managing 
the motor’s velocity and torque.
So the the majority of economical choice will be a Three Phase Induction motor followed by a BLDC motor. I’d suggest BLDC ( because of its huge marketplace penetration recently,ease of availability and easier consumer Electric Drive Motor china electronics/control ) or PMSM (Permanent magnet synchronous motors )
