Attached are pictures of my electric Triumph GT6. They are out of date by 1 year. It runs and drives, but is not finished or road legal, and it has had very limited testing. It has no problem peeling out, but hasn't yet been driven over 30 mph. I estimate from simulation that it should do 0-60 mph in around 5.5 seconds and top out at over 140 mph, and range should exceed 150 miles at 55 mph(we're talking not much over 100 Wh/mile).
Here's a list of the major components:
-Prestolite MTC4001 series DC motor, modified for high voltage operation. It was used in Kawashocki before sold to me by Bruce Meland
-EVNetics Soliton 1 controller
-Brusa NLG battery charger
-x60 CALB CA100FI LiFePO4 batteries for 19.2 kWh
By the time the car is finished, the batteries will be limited to 600A draw, the controller will limit the motor voltage to 165V, motor current will be limited to 680A, and applied power to the motor will be limited to 100 kW.
In the future, I intend to delete the transmission and go with dual Netgain 7" motors and set them up to shift them between series/parallel, add more batteries to complete the pack at 300.8V, and run the 1/4 mile in the 12 second range while having in excess of 200 miles range.
