EV Adoption

JUNE 14, 2021

Last week Tesla revealed that its new Model S Plaid EV could reach a speed of near 200 MPH and reach 0 to 60 MPH in 1.99 In fact I drive a Tesla Model S 100D which is pretty damn fast – much faster than what I need or use. Excuse me if I don’t get all giddy with excitement. Our public streets are not race tracks.

After spending the past year and a half converting a Porsche 914 to an electric vehicle, I decided to expand my horizons by designing an open-source electric vehicle (EV) conversion kit for a commonly used car. All the commercially available freeway-capable (70 mph) EVs are priced way out of reach for the average consumer.

They are either glorified golf cart city cars like this one or they are only for the very wealthy like the Tesla. With a top speed of only 65 MPH and a 100 mile range, the Think Global will remain a niche City Car for conspicuous green consumers who aren’t concerned about safety. Electric cars a still a joke.
