Electric EV Miata MX5 - First FULL POWER Test and Drive

[ParaphrasingGod]

THIS THING SOUNDS SO FUCKING ANNOYING

[Niftymanish]

Building an AC LiFePo Miata myself. Goes 60mi and I can get 10+ extra miles from regeneration, but not the same accel as DC.

[smhorse]

Absolutely incredible. The motor being revved sounds like a jet engine being powered up for taxi-ing!

[MrShiver55]

poor miata -.-

[xXxchipperchopperxXx]

why the fuck did you do this to a M edition you do this kind of shit to base models

[CTEngel85]

How ironic that the fog lights on this awesome electric car are very similar to the EV1's headlights...lol Great job, hopefully this tech catches on more and more and we get a better industry for batteries, controllers, etc.

[xXxchipperchopperxXx]

@CTEngel85 what fog lights? NA miatas do not have fog lights

[rang20300]

how much is 0-60 ?

[johntaheri]

where you guys going to put the vac pump for the brk? and how much psi you need?

[gav240z]

I went to your website but it doesn't have more information. I'm wondering what's involved in converting an MX-5 to electric. Thinking about it myself.

[frostyuk2007]

What is the final gross weight for this car?

[Pinups2Showboats]

Hows the heater working after the conversion ?

[sscholle333]

how did you get the brakes to work?

[konopatom]

800 Amps = TURBO BOOST!

[mauiboypoi]

it must be weird to drive a 5 speed ev car lol any way cool car, i dont really see the point but its still cool, thanks for the vid something you dont see very often

[wakr2]

nepoleon dynamite!

[xhiltonx]

whats the point in that, theres no fun....

[4plus2minus0]

@xhiltonx lol... i bet anyone would have fun driving anything with alot of torque..

[salvador62633]

lets see a burn out

[ivaniclixx]

You should have gone AC but the car is really cool!

Can't wait to do the same in a 2n hand NA.

[pipersall]

Great work! Love the sound of it! Why didn't you have that pretty girl riding in it with you? She should have had first ride. Anyway, you sure make me want to convert one one day. Thanks for the great video.

[redlineheart]

Get this thing on a dyno!

[capitalsown]

take it to a test track.

[DanFrederiksen]

awesome : )

what kind of accel are we talking about?

what 0-30mph and 0-60

[ledledledled]

@DanFrederiksen I still haven't had a chance to clock it- 0-30 is very fast, 0-60 is less fast. Breaks traction at standstill in 2nd. Would really need more voltage for speed in the top end.

[ferraridriver16]

5:18 is SO AWESOME!!!! It sounds like a jet turbine powering up!!

[greenthumbbum87]

this is soo cool whats the hp and torque rating?

[CoolBigWillieStyles]

Fantastic video. I am so inspired.
