If I'm reading correctly, the AC-35 has a peak rating of 47.78 horsepower, and weighs 43.9kg.
Presumably the 200kg motors you're looking at are not intended to be part of a moving vehicle. Those are likely intended for use in factories or shops where the weight is of little concern but durability is at a premium.
