| Vehicle | 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 Unique flat design allows maximum and optimal solar-panel use... just to 'trickle' ;-) This Bond car will not be used under water... |
| Motor | 3-Phase AC |
| Drivetrain | RWD, saving money for the Mr. Gage's AC-Propulsion drive- train see: WebPage |
| Batteries | 0.00 Volt, The Batt-Pack has to be built into manageable unit(s). The battery-disadvantages will be recycled.... |
| Seating Capacity | 2 adults |
| Curb Weight | 0 Should stay acceptably low, main reason for choosing the Lotus. |
| Tires | I have some old "spy" pictures of a black Lotus Esprit Turbo in front of GB's Good-Year Lab with double tires on Gotti-rims. I wonder what happened to that project... |
| Conversion Time | Running... |
| To all Lotus lovers: I know this is the rare LHD S1 version: WebPage The engine was stripped and boxed when I acquired the car (without papers) about 15 years ago (when I was still a petrol-head;-) The body is very cracked, the chassis is very rusty and it has a 'splitting' front screen. If I was not to convert this car, it would probably end up as a spare-parts / donor- car. UPDATE: 15/07/06. As this is a one-off, show-off plan, only costing money, I have put this project temporarily on hold. I have just invested in another project which has true production capability. More later... | |
