As my Miles ZX40s pickup is not any fun- A power train swap is emanate.
The only system that is publicly sorted out for re-use, (Documented) is the Tesla Model S system it is my first choice. The batteries are pricey, however you can both cool and heat them easily to match charging requirements due to weather, and they are readily available.
* Tesla and Smart traction motors are both "Gear reduced one speed, and simple to mount, as both have rubber mounting ears and both will give ample power to a 1500 lb. mini truck.
* Tesla wins the infinite burnout capability, and would likely be worth the extra $1500.
* Tesla top speed is approximately 15 mph, not necessarily a requirement in a 10' long Kei Truck.
1. Has anyone mounted an electric motor to a front drive transmission in a North - South configuration? IE GM, Suzuki, Smart, Ford, Nissan, Fiat, Hyundai, Kia.
2. Or used a Tesla traction motor in a swap?
