The motors are AC and it’ll have a variable frequency drive (fancy inverter that changes frequency to drive the motor at the desired speed). Also provides the regenerative braking by running at a lower speed than the motor.
DC motor EVs are not really a thing any more, outside of hobby conversions.
Low power VFDs are dirt cheap these days, but a 65kW one would run a few thousand. A brand name industrial spec one in that power range would cost $5-10k USD.
What do you need an inverter for? Cars are small. Isn’t everything DC?

Charging from home is AC, and IDK maybe it also contains the charging control for DC?
Anyways the inverter alone is generally upwards of 1000 Euro.
