Voltsporsche Kit

Electro Automotive has created the Voltsporsche Kit, an electro conversion kit specifically built for the Porsche 914.

The kit replaces the standard 4 cylinder engine with a 120-volt system capable of producing 85 mph top speed and 80 to 100 miles per charge.

I really like that fact that I will be able to drive up to 100 miles before having to recharge. The price of the kit is currently $13,415

I’m definitely considering purchasing this kit for my 1975 Porsche 914.

The Porsche 914 is a design beauty. I love the hard lines and the low profile body stance.

Because I live in Seattle, I can only drive my 914 during the summer months. Today I started the car and ran it for a few minutes in the driveway just to see if it still worked. As soon as I heard the engine turn over and start, I got a big smile on my face; it was great!
