What does the conversion cost in parts?

I've thought about doing an E conversion to my autocross car.

I think my car would be the perfect platform.

Parts for the EV system currently run in the neighborhood of about $20k–$25k depending on battery pricing, suppliers, and shipping costs. The guide includes a full parts list with vendor links so builders can see exactly what is used and what the current pricing looks like.

As for the time involved, it really depends on how consistently someone can work on the project. Builders working evenings and weekends usually spread it out over several months.

Stunning ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) You have a beautiful and functional conversion.


Much appreciated. It's really all about the fun. We had a great time at the West Coast 914 Ramble. Always fun seeing so many cars together and putting faces to forum names - Loretta, Oscar, Rico and Bruce Stone were there too.

Here’s a short clip from the day.

Thanks for posting those comments about the drive train. That is really the kind of setup I would move to in the future if the money appears. Nice thing about electric is as the battery technology improves it will lighten and improve range with little work on your part.
