Absolute lowest voltage to run a Tesla SDU

I have a Tesla SDU and I want to put it inside a light dune that with batteries and motor and frame would be around 1500 pounds and I want to put about 15 kWh and peak 72 V from the battery pack would only go under 55 mph to act like kind of the farm vehicle to drive between my ranches. Would this work or what is the minimum voltage needed to run my UTV

Power drops linearly with voltage. More precisely, the speed up to which full torque is available drops linearly with voltage. So it will be very lively down low and probably become a bit sluggish at your 55 mph max speed.

with a 15kwh target its surely possible to configure a battery with a much higher voltage?
