| Conversion Cost | Estimated 50000+ | ||||||
| Additional Features | Adding a solar panel array to assist in battery charging. Thinking of adding an Ultra Capacitor bank to maximize regenerative braking efficiency, very expensive though.. | ||||||
| Haven't started yet, I'll update as I go. Bought donor car on 6th June 2009. Batteries and other electronics may change by the time i start as there might be better options available then. Feel free to send me an email regarding my project, or even to tell me where i am going wrong. I like constructive criticism and would appreciate the help :) geerant101@hotmail.com | |||||||
