Mazda's Electric Miata
concept car |
http://www.greencar.com/perspective/mazda-miata-electric-car/ |
Factory electric with 16 NiCad
batteries giving it a range of 116 miles. Too bad it never saw production

Nice conversion with lots of detailed
touches, but Les, is that an alternator hiding under the controller?

Another clean conversion - this one
with A/C (!) and power steering. Extra points for the color matching
battery racks.

Not much goin' on here... Either Paul
lost his camera and internet connection or the car was never finished.
Nice domain name, though.

Nice car. 120 volts, 26 mile range,
but Joe, what's with the duct tape holding down the Curtis controller?

A bio-diesel hybrid Miata with the
motor acting as a charger a-la Chevy Volt. Looks like an interesting
conversion. I guess I'll need to buy the book to find out more...

I've heard there are a number of Miata
conversions in the San Diego EV club. This is a link to the Flickr album
of one of their events with a professionally converted Miata is seen. Like
to find out some more about the car, but this is all I could find. Flickr
won't let you copy pictures, so you'll have to visit the site to see what
this one looks like.

Outstanding conversion from down under
- 40 Thundersky Lithium batteries and the goal to be the fasted electric
car in the Southern Hemisphere! Nice build blog too.

20 Optimas in "buddy pairs" delivering
120 volts to a Curtis 1231C. Just wish Pat posted more pictures of the
works (just where did he stuff those 20 batteries?).

Bill's car was one of the first I
found on the 'net and was an inspiration for me. I emailed him with a
bunch of questions and used is battery layouts as a model for mine.
Amazingly, I saw his car (and this picture to the left) on a bunch of
eco/green sites. Not that it's a bad car, but of all the conversions in
all the world they pick one that needs bodywork?
