Porsche 914 EV Conversion

APRIL 7, 2008

I really appreciated the high-quality parts and detailed instructions provided by Electro Automotive with their 914 kit. I would like to see the same thing done for a more modern, practical vehicle for much less cost.

EVParts.com sells it as a DC-DC converter for many of their electric vehicle conversion kits. It cost me $130+shipping and is spec'ed to put out 45 amps, which should be very adequate for running all the 12V accessories in the car. The LED bulbs require a modification to the flasher circuit due the greatly reduced load.

They run on 48 volts and the company sells them as a kit for about $3500. With batteries and additional items, the final cost is around $5000. He built the DC version of the Electro Automotive kit awhile back and challenged me to a drag duel at Nedra next week. Not bad for something that has a top speed of 50mph.

Over the past few weeks I've been trying to contact the folks at Electro Automotive to get the status of the EV 914 kit. They finally responded last night and apparently they're completely buried under the demand for EV conversion kits. He got one of the earlier DC motor kits for the 914 from Electro Automotive.

The circuit above costs less than $10 per battery in parts and I hope to make this available to everyone to help people make their batteries last longer. I'll have to modify the circuit with a voltage doubler in the final stage to work with 8-volt golf-cart batteries for the 914 EV kit. It seems to work fine on my bench.

Until recently, the four main modular toolkits (modularen Baukästen) of the Group were: the MQB (transverse, driven by the Volkswagen brand); the MLB (longitudinal, driven by the Audi brand); the MSB (standard drive, driven by Porsche); and the NSF (New Small Family). Battery costs are making significant improvements. Earlier post.)

Compared to manufacturing CFRP in a pre-preg process, the RTM process is more economical—with lower costs at higher volumes—because it can be automated.

I find out this morning from Ross Cunniff (who also recently completed the 914 AC kit), that he has had ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS with his CCPower DC-DC converter. Since I finished the first kit, Electro Auto didn't want to replace my unit because they wanted me to find out more information before I simply blew up another one.

Some EVs are known for their acceleration, others (hello Porsche) for their cornering dynamics, and while the Niro won’t steal those headlines, it does all the little important things well.
