I have 58VW Bug that has been in the family for over 10years. I bought it and restored, lowered, painted it added porsche wheels and low profile radial tyres and gave it to my daughter. She had good time driving a pretty kool car around for a few years.
Times have now changed. She is married and has a family of her own, so the bug has been neglected for a while. I'm loathed to sell it, we put a lot of work into it. When i say we, i mean my daughter me and also my dad who is now a great grandad. You can all see, the old VW is part of the family.
So what now for the VW?.... EV/VW? .....just like the 57 VW samba on another thread here.
I've seen many opportunies to buy s/h cells at reasonable money and have been tempted, but how many do i need. What voltage and how many ah's is required to make it go? forget range for now. I'm wondering KW's (i know my ebike requires 850W to make 20-24mph.)
Is there a formula or simulator i can use that includes weight, rolling resistance, etc
Thanks in advance for any input
