Now it makes me wonder how an extended-range EV conversion could be registered there. Would it eventually become harder, or could you just fit it with a cheap Chinese genset due to the less stringent emission standards for off-road engine applications and let it go?

If you are intending to include Air Conditioning .. in the BEV Insight .. let me know.

I have a High VDC Electric air conditioning compressor I can donate .. would just need plumbed in to replace the OEM belt driven OEM Air Conditioning Compressor .. Has it's own remote 'throttle' control.

If I was extending range to an ev, the dmv here would never need to see it.
