In my state, you can get any vehicle to be excluded from emissions so long as you pay the $50-something fee for an inspection and the inspector comes back and says
"yes, it's safe. Yes it's emission free."
other than that an EV would flunk emissions simply for not having a tail pipe.
So don't be surprised if they come back to you and say "You need to get it inspected" or something of that sort.
Insurance carriers are usually satisfied with the state inspection.
BenN., I know you probably didn't select your battery type yet (so you don't yet have measurements), but where are you considering storing the packs? Will you be using trying to use the Feul Tank space for packs or the electronics? (controller, charger)
Also, in your introductory post for this build thread you didn't specify if you have a target range and/or speed. I'd like to hear what is the bare minimum for you to be happy using this as a daily car.
