Since you have decided to build your own electric vehicle, just like in life, before one sets out to do anything, proper knowledge is needed. Now you need to learn about electric vehicle motors. The following are considerations in choosing which vehicle to install.

1. What size motor do you need?
2. Do you use a DC or AC motor?
3. Detailed plan to do it.
4. Do you choose a car or a van?

Let’s start by outlining what you need to consider if the vehicle is suitable for conversion to an electric vehicle. A featherweight vehicle is best suited for electric vehicle conversion; the vehicle must also have ample room for batteries. The chassis of this featherweight vehicle must be strong enough to contain the additional weight of the DC electric vehicle’s batteries and motor. These are basically the main concerns when thinking about owning an electric motor.

Which motor to choose for DC or AC?

Large companies are installing AC motors. AC is light for its power output and they have a powerful charging device that works with their braking system when the AC motor slows down that power is transferred to the batteries. DC motor is preferred over AC motor, because AC is difficult to install and expensive. Lots of people like me adopt DC for their electric motors.

The outlined plan showed us where to find free electric vehicle motors and deep cycle batteries, thereby reducing the cost of driving our dream vehicle.

Another great way to cut costs is to opt for used or recycled DC electric motors, as the motor will last long enough for even the life of two vehicles. 9-13 inch DC electric motor runs better and has plenty of power.

With our environment changing due to the burning of fossil fuels (gas), and with gas prices set to hit $10 a gallon in the nearest future, the time to switch to an electric vehicle is now.
