Did you try googling "high power DC motor driver"?Hi Guys,
I hope that someone of you can help me because I have a problem related to the raspberry. I want to steer the motor of a go cart with the Raspberry Pi and a motor controller. I have to be able to control the speed as well, so relays won't work. The motor has around 240W, so 12V and 20A. Any suggestions?
I was searching for that same thing a few years ago and that's the search I used and ended up finding a suitable controller made by Pololu. It was to control a lawnmower with surplus wheelchair motor and batteries, not exactly a go cart, but similar enough to what you described.
There were other brands too, that's just one that I ended up using.
Other things you'll have to define is how to control the motor controller. Some can be done via i2c, others spi, others uart, some with all of those, etc.
Do the search and see what you find
