Vehicle Detail
Electric 1987 Pontiac Fiero Specs: 1987 Pontiac Fiero (Originally 4 cylinder and 5 speed manual) 192 Volts DC (16 - 12Volt Group 27 Marine Batteries) Advanced DC 9" Motor (Around 38hp Continuous & 192hp Peak) DCP T-Rex 1000 Motor Controller (1000 Amp) DCP DC-DC Converter (Converts the 192 Volt pack to 12 Volts for the Lights and Accessories) Power Brakes Converted to Manual Brakes E-Meter (Measures Volts, Amps, Kwh used, percent capacity left, Charging Efficiency, Number of Recharge Cycles, Average Depth of Discharge, Max Discharge) Performance: Max Speed: >100mph Max Range on Charge: 20-40miles Recharge Time: 4 hours at 240VAC and 16 hours at 120VAC Cost per Mile to Drive: .03 cents 3200 Lbs Curb Weight (About 700 more than a stock Fiero) I converted this Fiero about 10 years ago and drove it almost everyday for about 3 years. The batteries were week enough that is was a stretch for them to make my 40 mile commute. I parked the car due t oa lack in funds to replace the batteries and was hopping that the LifePO4 batteries would come down in price. They have and I have thought about resurecting this project and either using batteries like the original group 27 marine or the newer LifePo4 batteries, but I also have a house project to finish. When it was parked I took the batteries out and started going through the car mechanically. All that I know it needs for sure to be operation is new batteries and the vacuum pump and switch reinstalled. There may be other things I don't know about but it has been stored inside and The controller, charger, emeter, and all the other electronics should work. I think this only has about 10,000 miles on it since the conversion. The DC-DC converter, charger and controller should handle anything from 120 Volts DC to 192 Volts which is what I was running. It had great performance and was a blast to drive, but I now have a family with 4 kids and way too many projects.
