This is a 2009 Dodge Avenger that has been converted to an EV with an impressive 30KWh LiFePO4 Lithium Battery pack, 1,400amp Controller and all the accessories to make this a great running car. It was converted over a year ago but never completed. I took over the project and finished the BMS, Current Sensor, Motor Controller and display installs. Tech Specs:- 30 KWh LiFePO4 Battery Pack consisting of 54 individual 180ah 3.2v Lithium Cells- 260v 1,400amp NetGain Motor Controller- 9" DC EV Traction Motor- 3.3KW FLUX Power/LHV Power Charger- J1772 Charging Socket on front of Car- 110v 30a socket in former gas fill - 600w DC/DC Converter- NetGain Digital Info Display- FLUX Power State of Charge Gauge- Power Steering Assist Pump- Vacuum Brake Booster Pump- 1KW Heater Coil and Pump- Touch Screen Stereo with MP3, Satellite Radio, Hard Disk Drive* Laptop and CAN Connector are not included* 20' Charge Cable with 220v 30a Male connector and 110v 30a Male connector is included Performance:- 80-100 mile per charge(I've driven 85+ miles twice at 75-80mph and still had 10%+)- 25 mile charge time = 2.5hrs- 0-60mph in 12 seconds(could be closer to 10 seconds if you lock the Torque Converter) Things left on my list to make this an even better EV:- Lock the Torque Converter. This causes a bit of a shutter in the car under harsh acceleration and on hills. It works fine the way it is now but you could drop your 0-60mph times if you fixed this. Basically, you have to pull the Torque Converter and cut out and weld the input and output connectors together. Not a huge project but will cost $500-$800 at a shop- The J1772 connector on the front is not hooked up yet. I have never needed it and you may not either but it would be a nice option. You would need to run an additional power cable to the charger in the rear to get this working- If you live in a hot climate you might want AC in this Car. There are lots of aftermarket kits that run directly off the pack voltage. Most will only need one switch and work just like the heat(turn it on and then use the temp controls in the car as normal). I have left a space below the heat switch for you to add an AC switch at any time- The rear sits a bit low. It doesn't seem to impact performance but stiffer springs would make it look a bit better visually YOU MAY JUST WANT THE DRIVE SYSTEM AND BATTERY PACK FOR YOUR NEXT EV CONVERSION(its COMPLETE and tested!!!):- These batteries are just now broken in and have very low miles on them(less than 2,500 miles). They are LiFePO4 from a company called International Battery and MADE IN THE USA with a water based electrolyte. Unfortunately for International Battery(they are out of business now) these cells were VERY expensive to build and cost 5 times what comparable performing cells cost. This pack cost over $60k(comparable cells from Asia in 30KWh cost about $12k for the cells) and perform and have tested better than ANY asian LiFePO4 cell I have tested- The drive system with the 1,400a and 9" motor with all the other EV components will easily cost you another $12k- Plus the Display Systems and a VERY nice Battery Management System and 3.3KW Charger and you are into this another $5k* THIS IS $30k+ worth of premium parts packed in a nicely running vehicle. You could easily buy this unit for the parts and you've just made the shipping a LOT easier for your new project. You get all the parts in one nice roller(worth another $5k) and won't have to deal with HazMat shipping just the batteries and other components. It will only cost you $600 to get this car from San Diego to Houston but JUST to ship the batteries a company will have to charge you twice that because they have to ship them as Hazardous Material and the shipping companies charge a LOT for this service Please just let me know if you have any questions. And Good Luck Bidding or just BUY IT NOW!!! * I re-listed this after no bids at $12,000(which is crazy to me as this car's Blue Book Value with the standard drive package is almost $11k, hopefully the lower starting price will engage some bidders this time ;). But I received several questions through the first auction so I'll share those to head off repeats:- Why are you selling this? -- This car drives great now and meets my needs for a 50mile commute but I am closing our R&D shop to work out of my house. This means no commute. Good for my time but bad for the need of an EV. Hopefully someone else can make good use of this gas saving eco machine instead of it collecting dust in my garage.- Does this still have the combustion engine? -- This vehicle does not have the original gas motor nor do I have it in my possession. This is an electric propelled vehicle and the batteries are the only thing that provides power to drive this car.- Does this car have re-gen? -- This car has a DC drive system that does not have regenerative breaking.- How do I charge it? -- You can plug it into any 110v or 220v outlet for charging. The max draw the charger can do is 30a out of a 220v outlet. I am including one 220v 30a cord that plugs into a standard Dryer Outlet- Can you tow it behind an RV? -- Yes, The transmission will shift into N if you need to tow it with the front wheels down(its front wheel drive) or you can tow it with just the rear wheels down. You can not tow this car with the drive system engaged as it will damage the motor.- How much faster is it with the motor controller turned up to 1,400a? -- It is noticeably faster with the motor controller turned up(it is at 1,000a now) but I have not timed it. You can spin the tires(burn rubber) with the motor controller turned up.
