Has anyone here made an EV...
Has anyone here actually built their own EV from the ground up?
by "from the ground up" i mean - has anyone here built an EV and started with nothing but a frame? (I'm talking road worthy EVs) and no, strapping a chair to a turtle doesn't count. :turtle: |
MetroMPG did :)
search for Forkenswift ;) |
AH - so THAT'S how i stumbled on your site. I found Forkenswift first on U-Tube. but does that count? he started with an already made car. not exactly ground up. just modded (very well done, btw) instead of built.

bennelson made an electric Kawasaki: Electric Motorcycle conversion
Frank too: Dirt-E Bike (Kawasaki KE-175 Electric Conversion) |
Well, it'd be troublesome to use JUST a frame and nothing else...I think it might even be easier to build your own frame and body than to try and build a body to some rando car's frame, na?

With a uni-body car, doesn't the body count as the frame? ;-)

I think if you started with a 2 seater tube frame chassis, you could have a very well set up highway eater. You could make it small and light.

I'm thinking maybe I'll get a Go-Kart down the line and mod it into a street worthy EV.
But then again, I'm always thinking of stuff i don't have the money for. |
Well you can always get a dunbuggy kit minus the petrol engine and replace it with an electric on but finding places for batteries is another thing. thats what I have always wanted to do really, an all electric 4wheel independently driven dunebuggy
