Solar energy, fuel cells and super capacitors are a few alternative energy sources that can be used to power the motors of an electric vehicle. Several obstacles still remain in the way of popularizing electric vehicles, namely their range, and the time needed to recharge. In this research it is attempted to bring the electric car to a wider audience, by physically converting used automobiles to electric power and researching its potential as a fully electric automobile. A compact car was converted into a battery powered electrically driven automobile with minimum modifications to the original car. The engine of the car was removed but the original gear box was kept unchanged for more versatility.
