wow thats a mini I would love to have..but sadly i need a bif family van! 

okey..lets se some things here...the mini have a small fossile fuel engine that produces 15kw at constant rate.. to a "super" generator? is this what we could need if we wanna convert our cars perhaps

okey..one motor and a generator..and some software that controlls all the power...where can we look for this kind of small engines

i was looking in a swedish site called "nyteknik.se" and found an aricle (http://www.nyteknik.se/art/53304) that toyota has in secret tried out lituim-jon batteies in their cars...in the model VITZ (yaris)
and that in japan you could get a hybridkit for that model for about 5500 sek ( 856 usd).


..wow..anyone knows anything about this??

[kallstrom_74]

i think about this all the time...
i cant figure out how to calculate any of this..if i would have a eletric engine that have about 170 tp 200 hp...(dont know what kind) how many batteries would be needed? 4, 10 or how many?.AND..is there any generator that could load the batteries? how many Kw hould it have to produce?

can anyone please tell me anything about this..i will just go crazy about this
