Here is a list of electric vehicle conversion shops in North America. The list is not in any particular order neither is it comprehensive. I will keep on adding more EV conversion shops into the list as when I come across them on the web.
Most people like the idea of driving a [tag-tec]pure electric car[/tag-tec]. Unfortunately, a new EV from the manufacturer is still relatively expensive. The only alternative is to build one via Do It Yourself (DIY). Again, most people would not have the skill nor the know how to do their own electric car conversion. It would be a better idea just to outsource it to an EV conversion workshop.
To be prudent, you should get some basic information on electric vehicle conversion. At least you will know when you are being charged for unnecessary parts or work done on your car. For information on EV conversion, check out Les Oke’s Convert 2 EV e-book. In the meantime, check out the list and see if any of them can help you to convert your gasoline driven car to EV.
