The Robin is very light weight & has a relatively high center of gravity. The Predator EV3© has a wide track & the batteries strategically located over the rear wheels. The 144 volt battery system we are designing will use either lead-acid or Li-Ion batteries, whichever best fits the needs of the customer. We have established a partnership with a Li-Ion battery manufacturer & are able to buy batteries at a considerable discount. Thank you for your comments and best of luck with your project!

@zackwildinc You can buy batteries from 36 volt cordless drills.You can then take them apart in put them in your ev car.

hello, love the idea of your cheap ev, one that anyone could buy. I have similar goal for our future and I am currently building a body for an ev. I see you have based your design on the reliant robin? I am wondering what type of batteries you will b using, lead acid? kwh (size of pack) voltage? Ive looked into lithium cells and the pack will cost 10,000 - 15,000$
