1975 Porsche 914 electric vehicle conversion

We don’t really post vehicles like this, because really if you can’t  hear the growl of a finely tuned piece of German craftsmanship or smell the fumes, what’s the point right?

Well loyal reader Bob pointed this out to me and I was bored tonight so here it is for you folks who want a German Prius.

$15,000 gets you a plug in Porsche with 92,000 miles on the body. Here are the details from the seller:

144 volt system
Azure Dynamics/Solectria AC24 3-Phase AC Motor and DMOC445 Controller
Zivan NG3 onboard charger
Iota DLS-45 DC/DC converter
New batteries as of August 2009 (US Battery US8VGC)

Highway driveable electric conversion. This is the AC VoltsPorsche kit from ElectroAutomotive (www.electroauto.com). The AC motor/controller allows for custom settings of the controller and regenerative braking to increase range and save wear and tear on the brakes.

    Bored is porbably how you would feel driving it for a week. But quite the Status symbol in the Whole Foods parking lot.
