Hamburg High air 10 October 2013 – Wide-eyed glances at the counter of the drive-in restaurants: where the most hungry, try an electric motor to shut allow the window, the driver of the ReeVOLT Beetle cranks itself But where almost all an internal combustion engine works, silent the neon green painted Volkswagen. Instead of the typical boxer sound drowned out the rear nothing. Because these beetles, which ran from the band in Mexico 1997, was converted to the electric car. The Hamburg entrepreneur Sirri Karabagh, actually wholesalers for Fiat Commercial Vehicles, has developed a Transformationskit with which let the beetle, and a whole lot of other cars converted to electricity. . Motto: The simpler the output technology, the easier the conversion
No Bargain
13,500 euros required Karabagh for the rebirth to come monthly battery hire 99 euros – the base vehicle (“Glider”) not included. Let be the calculator. The offer is not for the sharp calculators, but have something for freaks who are keen on technology and a car that does not deserve to end up on the scrap just because the head gasket is gone or the transmission is leaking.
The Transformationskit is freely available. The essential elements are the electric motor with 28 kW peak power and 148 Nm of torque, the lithium-polymer battery with 11 kWh of capacity, including management system, to ethanol by Eberspacher heater and a touch screen as a display instrument. The e-Bug does this affect unusual: In cold conditions, it is as fast as warm as it was formerly never. And the old VW pulls of the traffic steadily forward. Rapidly than its counterparts with boxer engine. Clearly lurking than other electric cars. The e-beetle weighs about 900 kilograms. The power consumption was just under 13 kWh per 100 kilometers, with an energy value of the classics could only dream of., The average of all registered Spritmonitor Beetle is 9.2 liters of gasoline
Karabagh had been around 750 Fiat 500 converted to electric cars. This experience begins now, with the progress of the Transformationskit mainly lies in the reduction of the number of parts. Theoretically, convert any car. Practically, there are many obstacles if and only if the base is too modern. Namely the Volkswagen Beetle is all as simple as possible. The transmission is locked in third gear and the flange-mounted electric motor. The heater blows directly into the existing channels – bye, your rotten Heizbirnen! . Out with the tank, in with the battery and power electronics finish
