Audi A2 EV conversion part 8

Finally got those pesky 5/16th UNC nuts on the fuse holders and - after a bit of fiddling with the controller via the computer interface - she's alive!

The max economy setting looked more aggressive then the sport setting. The Aptera is using the same system as you in the A2 it get's 0-60 in 8 seconds and a limited top speed of 85mph. Look for video's of it on my channel. And congrats, a very good job!!

In fact both runs on the max economy setting, I just didn't squeeze the throttle so hard on the 2nd run... mine should go only to 105kph since I have a 12:1 reduction on the motor. Hopefully I can do some tests out n the road soon.

Is that an EV Grin I see?? Congrats mate,

[audia2ev]

Thanks sure is an EV grin :-) Was a bit nervous it would suddenly go wrong - this was really it's first move out of the work area...

@Bogt 100km/h is okay for around town stuff, but you don't wanna be doing that down a motorway, unless you like being swamped by trucks, coaches etc??

Woohoo Nice one

Looking forward to part 8

I am very looking forward to that. The A2 is really a great car! Good choice to go with the 12:1 reduction gear, it will give good acceleration. Who need to go faster than 100 kph anyway? I discovered that you can add more parts to bring down the Cd from 0.28 to 0.25 from the A2 1.2TDI 3L That will give you more range for less money then more batteries.
