Toyota Hilux EV Conversion


The Hilux takes $2/100km off peak power, though I have been driving free with wind & solar power. Top speed, 120km/hr. Range, 100km at 100km/hr, 140km at 80km/hr, expected 160km or so at 60km/hr (not tested). Acceleration, 0-60km/hr in 10 seconds, 0-80km/hr in 18 seconds, 0-100km/hr in 29 seconds. Can take off it 2nd gear, keep up with regular traffic acceleration, and do 100km/hr in 2nd gear. Amp draw at 60km/hr between 50-100amps, at 80km/hr between 120-150amps, at 100km/hr between 180-250amps. Amp draw is the same in any gear at the same speed.
