Ok,. so that was a cool one, but there wasn't enough detail.

Here is a link to John Allen's 6th Gen,. it's a coupe, so still only so cool, but he has a write up and tons of videos of it, and the components.

John Allens Toyota Celica EV

Video of some Components

Here is a nice comparison he's done of the value of the EV conversion...

Gas Car
How many gal of gas at $4/gal
240,000 miles @ 30 miles/gal= 8000 gals
8000 x $4= $32,000
How many oil changes @ 1 every 3000 miles
240,000/3000 = 80 oil changes
80 x $30 = $2,400
Total cost of gas and oil changes for 240,000 miles is $34,400

EV
How many KwHr per charge
48 x 3.4volts x 180 Amp Hours = 29.376
29.376 kwh x $0.11/kwh =$3.23/charge cycle for 100 miles
240,000/100 x 3.23= $7,752 electricity for 240,000 miles
cost of replacing batteries after 240,000 miles $11,000
Total cost of batteries and electric to charge them for 240,000 miles is $18,752
