Well it wasn't me, but a family member. It's an NEV top speed of 25mph, but can be changed, not sure if so legally or not, but I can't find any laws stopping me from doing so in Pennsylvania. They seem to be restricted to 25mph because of government laws requiring crash tests for vehicles that wold be faster.

I can't say for sure but I think its based off a micro car sold in Europe under the name spartan, but im not so sure.

Its a 2007 ZENN 2.2 LX
Has almost every option other than AC.:D
I should either be picking it up in New Hampshire this weekend or getting it delivered here within about a week.
Has a range of 30-50 miles and perfect for round town travel.

I'll have more pics up when it gets here and maybe a video of a test drive.
found a lot of good information on this guys site.Home
 
With a 25mph gov, they should not be allowed on the road. You are going to get run off the road.
 
I am sure there is some sort of voltage regulator on it. Find it and see if it can be altered. Maybe you can squeeze more power/mph out of it, but I doubt it will last very long. Batteries will eventually discharge.
 
well it wasn't my budget
MSRP was at like 17,000
got it for 11,000.01 :D still gotta ship it though
If I get it should run about 500 at most, otherwise 850 for transport.

lol 72 volts, I've been hit with worse.. just not in the groin.

The limiter can be raised easy, i know how to wire it in, I just need to crack the motors software password, or buy the stuff to do it for like 80ish
 
i'm not sure i understand why people do this.

if i was going to get 25/mph i would just buy a vespa or something. slow speed+cheap car=death in an accident.

Wait until you see your monthly electric bill :)

You'll be BEGGING for an escalade.

depends where you live, if you're in a municipality with, hydroelectric, coal, or other cheap energy sources (Well, cheaper than petroleum) then you'll spend a lot less on total energy (Gasoline + Electricity bill)
 
The EV Ford Escort we built in HS is faster than that.
 
Eh, it's governed to 25 mph which means you can easily make it faster at the expense of range.

People always claim that "Your electric vehicle gets power from a plant that uses petroleum products" but if the cost of the electricity was less than the cost of gasoline, mile for mile, I'd rock an EV anyday.
 
so it will take me 3 times as long to only get half way to work on its range, before needing to be recharged????
so if i get 2 of them and leave one at the half way point charging and leave the house 3 hours earlier than i do now, i wont need to buy gas any more????

no thanks
 
...i'm a huge fan of electric cars, but maybe more like a crx with a torque monster ac induction motor that can take some k20's to the cleaner... but back to my price range, i picked up a 50cc Honda moped for two hundred bucks and it gets 80mpg, and when i get stopped by the po i dont sweat as much when i hand him my id card (yea id card baby no license). about to get a 70cc kit for it. But like a fat chick, its only fun till my friends catch me ridin' it.
 
This kind of car was wanted for many years long before gas prices went up anyway ^_^. got pics of the car in a moment and will have video of it later on.
