Hello folks. I'm so glad that i found this place. I was looking lately at all of those electric vehicles an i want to build one and give my input to greener planet:). Sorry if sometimes my english would be hard to understand, i am lithuanian.
So here it goes. I want to build a 3 wheel vehicle, 2 seater. 2 wheels front 1 drive wheel back. i would like to use rover mini or something small like fiat saichento(dont know spelling). for the back i would like to use bikes back.
I was looking at that NMG and i liked it. Can you please list the parts i need so i could dig deeper and if you can sugestions for motor, batteries etc
The rover mini wights 690 kg, so take out engine, gearbox back wheels and it will go down i think by half at least.
I was thinking about using same motor as in nmg but with optima bluetop 5.5 batteries (75Ah).
I was thinking of changing motobikes gear on the wheel and motor side to aluminium pulleys and belt instead of a chain.
What range i woud achieve with such setup as well as max speed.
For me perfect would be 50 miles range and 65mph top speed
The component price is also important. Thank you for taking time and reading.
P.S. I do have fabrication and electronics skills
