man we should form a community and start shooting the shit about what’s feasible. whether it was this setup (after much thought I’m dubious about this solution because I think my city’s shit roads / pothole system will destroy in-hub wheels quickly) - or something like a tesla salvage running the existing gear train… obviously swap the fuel cell for batteries, same with engine space recovered.
give me 100-150 miles range but 50 loaded / hauling and i’d be happier than a pig in shit.
I actually have no idea how to create communities on Lemmy and atm don’t have the spare time to futz with it, but if no one else does it I’ll try to do it over summer.
Weighs the same, has an average 150 mile range.
So more than enough for 95% of land rover owners to take their kids to school and get groceries.
yup, which is what 99% of them do with their rovers anyway.
man I want to put this conversion into my honda element
There are dozens of us that want to convert our Elements!

Let me know when you start the c/ ! I have seen a lot of conversions for Elements, but I think I’ve read that it’s too heavy to electrify
