The Electric Starion is now at a drivable state and we take her for a spin at the annual electric car show in Sydney. Some say that by international standards, the AEVA show is probably not a huge event, but conversely, for a small population, there is a high proportion of interest in EVs in Australia plus R&D attracting international attention, despite little interest from the government to date (although the recent Climate Ready initiative may change this). Many types of makes and models …

-.-’ Me and my freinds took a RARE 1970 Dodge Super bee and totally rechanged it It run on a a Supercharge Battery i got for $73k and Made it light, have 4 doors, new logo, a cool head onament, a paint job, All terrain tires and taineted windows.
ownside: can only goup to 10km at a max range of 45km.
WE only use if for show?
You are living the dream.
Oh we’re planning on boost, an electric boost using IGBTs. I just need to save up for a few more batteries and a couple of IGBTs. Gotta finish an Echo for someone first.
wtf?! lol… thats cool…. still prefer petrol starions
. mmmmmmmmmmmmm boost 
Oh, you say Nissan Micra? Small car you may only need 90Ah thunderskys – about half the price of what I paid for the 160Ah. Cheers
Cost me $10k for 45 x 3.2v x160Ah to make nominal 144v. You can get them from Everspring or evpower via Australia. Battery management can be obtained from them also, or BEV. Don’t use Thundersky bms, it’s really a battery ‘monitor’ only. Check prices, they may come down next year
how much is the battery pack? does anyone knows? I want to convert my nissan micra electric next year.
‘Washington state EV conversions’ brought up a couple of links.”
Thank you so much! I thought I might talk to our Comunity College also, as they teach auto stuff, and might help me with my truck as a project! (smile)
Up to a certain weight – light pickups and hatches are best, any heavier and it gets expensive with reduced range – pickups are good as you can put all the traction pack in the tray so there is no splitting of the battery packs, therefore less resistance. I’m currently in Sydney Australia. Don’t know what’s available in Washington State (a quick search for ‘Washington state EV conversions’ brought up a couple of links.
Can you make any car or truck into electric? If so is there anyone in Washington State that does this work?
EVs are known to work and be enjoyed….my 2000 Ford Ranger EV NiMH was a Clinton Era EV escapee….why won’t Ford make this today?
Time for local start up cars to bankrupt big auto!
I never wanted to be a red shirt til i saw this video:)
