Price: US $10,600.00 Item location: Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States

Description:

1991 Mazda MX-5 Miata

NOTE: THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO BATTERY-ELECTRIC PROPULSION.
Looking to sell my 1991 Miata Electric Vehicle conversion in excellent condition. I converted it to electric 3 years ago at 179k miles and have put on about 6000 miles since then. I kept as much of the car stock as possible, especially in the interior.
I fabricated a custom coupler and adapter plate in order to preserved the original 5spd transmission and clutch. You can throw it in 3rd gear and drive it like an automatic (no clutch), or drive it just like a stick shift using the clutch. I personally prefer to start in 2nd and shift to 3rd or 4th as I gain speed.
Motor and controller are capable of 144kw peak output (roughly 190hp), and of course all the torque available with an electric motor makes it quite fun to drive. Car has about 80 miles of range in mixed city/highway driving with average speed/acceleration. Less with very spirited driving of course. Car does NOT have regenerative braking.
EV Features:- 24kwh lithium battery pack running at 144V nominal (1.5 full packs from a gen1 chevy volt)- Netgain Warp 9 DC motor- Manzanita Micro Zilla 1K 1000A DC motor controller- Orion2 BMS- Elcon 1000W DC-DC Converter- Thunderstruck TSM2500 Level 2 Charger with J1772 plug where former gas cap was. Plug in at any Level 1 or 2 charger.- Comes with mobile charger and a number of adapters for various outlet types
Other vehicle features:- Clean title- Manual steering rack- Good condition vinyl top. No tears.- Interior in good condition except for some leather cracking on the steering wheel.- Aftermarket stereo- New paint job in original Mazda Classic Red- Fairly new (<5000 miles) Vredestein Quatrac 5 tires with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) rating.
Note: I removed all belt-driven AC components and intended to try to implement a DC heat pump for AC and heat, but never got around to it. Car does NOT currently have AC or heat.
