Congrats on job well done.looks a treat.whats the go with insuring an EV car in north america and when it comes to rego time is there any reductions in the cost compared to the average car.I ask this because in queensland australia there is some sort reduction in annual rego costs.cheers---paul
The Rabbits were pretty light (for their time): between 1800-1900 lbs is the most accurate I could come up with from a quick search. They were very popular as a conversion vehicle.
Paul: registration is the same cost here in Ontario, but there's no emissions test for an EV, so you save a bit there. As for insurance, it can be tricky, but it's possible to get. We'll find out just how tricky in a couple of months...
(Drat - there I go making progress predictions again - standard disclaimer applies...)
As far as insurance goes for most EVs, I suggest shopping around for a 'declared value' policy. And just because one agent says no, that doesn't mean another won't say yes - even selling the same company's insurance.
Forkenswift can probably get by with a standard policy given the low cost of parts involved.
The inquiries I'd made so far were for liability only - don't think we're planning to insure the vehicle for loss. $35/month was the best quote I got so far.
