Re: Futureproofing for the next big thing?
I'd be quite happy if I could retrofit my 25 year old petrol drinker - I've got quite fond of it - with a battery pack and a motor of similar performance, at a sane price. That is, low thousands, not thirty or forty grand.
There is a reason lots of folks drive ten year old cars - and it tends to be that they either can't afford, or see no reason, to buy a new one. They're going to have to have a very strong reason to purchase a new electric vehicle, but inexpensive conversions make a lot of sense.
