I need to take a serious look at converting my 2000 honda odyssey. Every
year I throw a little more money into repairs hoping that a suitable EV
replacement will come on the market. So far, nothing that meets my
needs.
I think I am going to have to replace most of the exhaust system, which
could cost a couple $k. Honestly, that's still the cheapest path, but
something like that occurs every year. That plus miscellaneous other
maintenance expenses plus gas, I wonder if I come out ahead, over some
years, converting it. I hate throwing more money into something that
still uses gas.
Here are a few questions on my mind, and surely they will expose more :)
- what are the dims of the tesla model 3 82kWh battery ?
- what is its cost, salvaged (but with near new capacity) ?
- what is the cost of other components I need to salvage - motor,
inverter, BMS, charger ... ?
- what computer support is needed for the motor, inverter, BMS, charger
?
- is anyone willing to do the work ? for what cost ?
I suspect this car is old enough that its existing engine related
computers can be removed. There are some smarts in the window and
ventilation control, but they might operate without any central
computer.
