gasman, how many months of feasibility studies would you recommend that it takes to run a successful bake sale, or a tire shop, or a cafe?

Will you tell me what your core competency is? Did you make a SWOT analysis chart before you chose your major, and do people pay you for this?

From your post, I get the impression that you went to business school, but I can't tell if you actually know a single thing about the electrical conversion business, or auto repair, or really anything at all that has to do with running a Mom and Pop shop.

Starting out as a conversion business is what a lot of other people have done, and it is grossly inefficient. It takes a lot of time fit a system into one of these and one of those.

I would be duplicating in volume what has already been successfully done, with a streamlined production process, rather than a random mixture of one-offs.

It is possible to build a nice EV at less than half the price that the new automakers will be offering.
