Motor factories are one type of factory in Rise of Nations. Each factory produces 6 units of 
Motor Parts, and requires 1 unit of 
Steel and 2 units of 
Tungsten. These are vital for producing Tanks and supporting Civilian factories. Motor factories cost $25,000,000 to produce.
If the country you start with has an abundance of steel and tungsten, like Russia for example, you should build multiple of these factories and use research to increase the amount of motor parts you produce. This will allow you to create strong tank divisions, and it will allow you to export the parts to other countries so you can generate a decent profit. It can be hard sometimes to find a nation to buy tungsten from, so you will most likely need to buy from a player nation, who sometimes hoard their tungsten so other countries cannot produce tanks and become stronger than them, as well as make money due to their monopoly.
