Notes: This vehicle was converted and used by Electric Vehicle Solutions to prototype and test conversion kit components. The Trojan batteries are approx 3 years old and are weak. Range when new was approx. 35 miles at 65mph. After conducting extensive controller testing over the past two years, the batteries are weak and currently provide approx. 15 miles range. Although (18) 8V batteries are installed, the battery boxes are built to accept (20) GC2 (6V) batteries. The vehicle is clean with an exceptional interior. There is a dent in the left rear box below the taillight where the vehicle was backed into.
