ogshed A mass produced Tesla battery costs 30k. The motor refered to in this thread costs over 30k. Odds are you would need two electric motors for a HMMWV. For that money you can buy a complete electric car or three brand new economy cars. Like I said... Fools Errand.

Yeah Action. The real art is designing and placing the four axle motors and designing a battery with enough energy that won’t blow up. But I get you. It would be quiet enough to hear my wife complain.

Closed minded? LOL This idea of converting a HMMWV to electric is a fool’s errand. I own 2 Teslas and I know how they work. Power goes directly to the axles to avoid parasitic energy loss from trannies and transfer cases and in our case the axle boxes. Without batteries our vehicles weigh in...

I’m sorry but I don’t get anything about this thread. Too expensive. Not realistic. Waste of time. Still needs 30k battery pack after installing a 30k motor. To each their own I guess.

Easy to buy a few 5 gallon containers to hold spare Diesel. Not as easy to buy a container that is easily filled and stores a few trillion electrons.
