My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by OLEADTIPS: 2:17pm On Sep 30, 2023
MY BOSS CONVERTED HIS TOYOTA COROLLA TO ELECTRIC

My Boss Sir Ola has done it again. The increase in Pump price across the country has made my Boss to do things differently. I didn't believe him when he said he was going to convert his Car to electric.

He surprised us two weeks ago when he completed the conversion successfully.
I got the opportunity to test drive the car today.

Nice one. How much did he spent to convert it and also what are the disadvantages of driving an Electric car here in Nigeria. I would love to hear from you cos I'm planning on converting mine too.

Shaby job. Explosion loading. They have compromised a lot of things. Last thing I'd do on earth in naija na both surgery and gas conversion.

Good one, but he still has to recharge somehow sadly PHCN is not as reliable so he may be back to square one sooner or later

He should have converted a car that consumes fuel , e.g Toyota Sequia or hilux and not this toyota corolla.

Good initiatives! What's the performance after conversion, in terms millage, drivability etc. Also what type of batteries is used. Is it lithium phosphate or lead acid battery

Re: My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by aAK1(m): 7:18pm On Oct 01, 2023
thats an expensive conversion o. the motor, controller and battery
Re: My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by Glocal1: 8:08pm On Oct 01, 2023
This is a good experiment.
I hope he has a stable means of recharging it.
Will he still be using fuel?
Is it hybrid of petrol and electric?

Necessity is truly the mother of invention.
Re: My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by bonnyhope: 7:16pm On Oct 03, 2023
I de fear for the driver of this car

Re: My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by cyborg123(m): 5:17pm On Oct 04, 2023
I suspect this is a prototype. More attention needs to be paid to running the connections in a safe and proper way.

Good attempt!
Re: My Boss Converted His Toyota Corolla To Electric by fineboynl(m): 6:35pm On Oct 04, 2023
So the transmission and engine were removed.

Is the the current steering a power steering?

How many miles can a full charge goes?
And how many hours to charge it
