I've never built one either, but about 10 years ago, I watched a co-worker put his EV together. I learned that building an EV is not an easy task. Something I would rather not try myself.
But, if I could convert my CRV into a mild hybrid for a reasonable cost, in time and money, that seems like a worthwhile goal.
I was just reading about the controller and other hardware used by Netgain
to convert ICE cars and trucks.

And it seems pretty complicated at first glance.
Maybe I should start off with EV go-cart.?.
