No, electric motors exert the most torque at zero RPM. That's where you can put the most current through the coil, because there's no back-EMF. It's why EVs are so zippy from a stop. The torque-speed curve is a straight line, with 0 torque at max RPM and a constant power.
For synchronous motors. Induction motors (like the auxiliary/dual motors used on something like the Chevy Equinox EV) have a different torque/speed characteristic.
