Good on him! Especially for holding up the middle finger to 'The Norm'.
I do have an electric Triumph GT6 conversion, currently the only car I own. But that doesn't fall into "the norm" either. I will finish it when I get the time and the workspace. At some point, I want to put that nifty carbon-fiber-banded Tesla Model S PLAID motor in it and make 300+ electric horsepower in a vehicle that's lighter than it was as an ICE.

The velomobile is in the middle of being upgraded to AWD with added front hub motors and has a Molicel P42A battery pack capable of 50 kW peak discharge as I type this. My initial plan is to try 25 kW and 400+ Nm of torque to go with that AWD and see if I don't rip the vehicle apart and/or kill myself with it. I've got Hellcats rolling around in this hood to troll.
