Lots of 'the car shows' are doing 'conversions' nowadays...big job but if thats what your chasing....its do-able...makes em bloody heavy !!!....when the battery weight thing is sorted it may be how we all have to go to keep our 'pride n joy'....some interesting 'hot rodders' using all sorts of electric motors...some creating immense torque...no battery life with that intent

Maybe straight EV is just a passing fad. BMW & Toyota dont think straight EV is the future.

Its not what you would call 'new technology'....more 're-hashing' and updating old technology....and on the current 'catch cry' of Environmentally Sustainable its way off target...only my opinion...no offense intended to readers or taken by your thoughts....looking at the 'bigger picture' we all need to ignore the media at times...they lie...sponsored publishing of fictional content will, and does, occur.
