small and light, which is good, but if it uses Nissan's trailing arm rear suspension on a V crossbeam subframe you'll find battery weight and packaging to be an issue.
1991 Nissan NX1600 - Good candidate EV?
Hi Folks,
I'm a total n00b and just getting my bearings here. I've got an opportunity to buy a 1991 Nissan NX1600 for $250. The car ran daily up until a year ago, has very minor rust spots.
It's a hatchback, but it would be very easy to build a cover for the cargo area and vent the rear battery compartment.
Are there any deal-breakers on this model or issues I should be aware of? I can't find any EV conversions on the web.
It's a nice looking car and it has a T-top which I like.
Any motor recommendations?
