Eco-conversions specializes in converting oil dependent vehicles to electric. Focusing specifically on luxury vehicles, our goal is to shatter the image of the traditional electric car.
Even though all high-end, luxury and luxury sports car conversions are acceptable, our benchmark vehicle is the BMW 8-Series. It is the perfect marriage of style, luxury and performance. At eco-conversions we work hard to show that it is possible to create another choice for the environmentally conscience consumer. By using environmentally friendly nickel-zinc batteries, we provide enough power to maintain both the feel and performance of a luxury sports car. Each charge provides 100+ miles of drive time. No gas required. Zero emissions. The end result is a luxury vehicle that you can feel good about driving.
Eco-conversions has partnered with eVionyx, an American company that has developed nickel-zinc rechargeable batteries which can handle over 2000 cycles at 90% DoD. The eVionyx nickel-zinc battery has superior performance as compared to other battery technologies available today. The nickel-zinc cells are superior to lead acid in total power and energy, specific power and energy, and recharge time. It is less expensive and also performs better than NiMH cells. NiZn batteries are particularly suited to high-power applications, such as use in electric vehicles and light transportation.
