1999 Ford Ranger electric conversion

Author admin    Category EV Garage     Tags


Al has converted a 1999 Ford Ranger into a pure electric truck which he calls ‘EPT2′ (EPT1 was his first electric car…a 1972 Datsun Pickup). Al says in the article that his new EV Truck has a range of about 35-40 miles and tops out at a respectable 60 Mph. His conversion parts are standard parts such as lead acid batteries and an off-the-shelf electric motor. Overall the truck weights about 4,540 lbs and is a comfortable ride. He says hasn’t changed his lifestyle much except for the fact that he doesn’t have to fuel up anymore and can still enjoy his truck just like he used to. Read More at Al’s website
