Zero-emission mobility is not just for high-income earners, as it was thought (and, indeed, was) until some time ago. By this, we do not mean that Tesla is going to produce its first low-cost model, which is not expected. However, an invention that changes your gasoline engine into an EV… in just 8 hours – saving you up to 90% in money – is taking the world by storm.
You are going to have a zero-emission car without buying it
Imagine driving your normal non-sustainable gas guzzler, later on, converting it to an eco-friendly EV, possibly within a few hours. Currently implemented by a German start-up venture, this groundbreaking concept is all set to disrupt the traditional car-ownership model and globale sustainability.
One of the attractive ways of turning regular ICE vehicles into EVs helps not only to cut emissions but also contributes to costs as it is significantly lower than buying a new electric car. The idea behind this ingenious invention is deceptively simple:
- Rather than dispose of older gasoline vehicles or go through the rigmarole of selling conventional cars and acquiring an EV, car owners can choose to convert their existing cars instead.
- This process involves the eliminations or rather swapping of the conventional car engine, fuel tank, and other related elements with an electric motor or battery pack and more electrical system if necessary.
German startup turns your gasoline car into an EV: how they do it
In the current innovation, e-Revolt, a German start-up is the initiator of this new invention. Starting from the vision of a small team of engineers and enthusiasts, the company aims to develop a realistic and viable solution to address the challenges posed by existing gas-powered automobiles.
Being an environmentally-conscious company with strong principles and long-term visions of the green future of the automobile industry, e-Revolt understood vast opportunities that lie in the Sea of traditional cars rather than in the heap of scrap metal.
The founders of the company are motivated by the desire to create a product with potential and have gathered a qualified team of automotive engineers, electrical engineers, software engineers and other experts from the automotive industry.
An impossible idea or a new type of mechanical engineering? This is how they have achieved it
The whole process of converting a non-electric car to a billboard of electrical splendor is quite brilliant as well as mechanically unparalleled. To begin with, all the internal structure of the vehicle employs internal combustion engine and all related components are dismantled meticulously.
Next, the traditional internal combustion engine remains intact, but is reconfigured to make way for the electric powertrain. This depends on identifying and mastering four essentials, namely an innovative electric motor, a range-extending battery, and a smart power control unit.
The battery pack, the energy source of an electric car, is located at the center of the vehicle and connects with the structure as a whole in terms of weight distribution without compromising the car’s handling. Sophisticated state of the art battery monitors and controllers are used to monitor.
This wonderful piece of engineering is then connected to the vehicle’s serving transmission system with the amount of power and torque needed for smooth acceleration and quite engaging driving behavior. Regenerative braking systems are also inclusive, which use energy which is dissipated during coasting.
This new invention to change your gasoline engine into an EV will mark a historic milestone in sustainable mobility, and it is just what was expected when the first prototypes were launched. However, the negative point is that it has not received significant funding from carmakers (perhaps because they are more interested in selling engines than in devices to transform them).
