Slowly rising fuel prices and the nation’s concern for the environment have begun to put people’s minds in a mode that makes them look for better remedies to drive vehicles cheaply. One of those alternatives is an EV (Electric Vehicle). Sure, you can go hybrid shopping and be done with your problem there, but what if you don’t have the money to buy a new hybrid? So your next bet is to implement a DIY electric car conversion kit.
By converting your vehicle to run on volts and current, you will enjoy driving a unique vehicle and save a lot of money each year by owning one. There are many other benefits of driving an electric vehicle, including:
1. Easily drive the speed limit
2. The feeling of relief from NOT emitting greenhouse gases
3. Drive up to 200 miles on a single charge
4. A drastic reduction in maintenance costs
5. A quiet and peaceful ride without the dirty gasoline engine making noise.
Now, it may sound a bit mechanically difficult to implement this system in your everyday gasoline car. However, it is not as difficult as it sounds. Any normal Joe can make his vehicle run on electricity. All you need is a little patience, a friend, and all the basic tools in your garage. Don’t take it to mechanics because they can easily charge $3,000-$6,000 for the conversion. All you need is a few hundred dollars to purchase the parts and a detailed step-by-step guide to putting it all together.
If you were to go ahead with converting your vehicle to electric, it would be preferable to use a small car, since the weight is significantly small. However, any vehicle will do.
By following a detailed step-by-step structured manual on how to install an electric car conversion kit, you’ll be on your way to a cleaner future and incur fewer expenses in EV ownership.
