[EVDL] Curtis 1227-2406 controller docs

2018-11-06 Thread Lee Hart via EV

Hi all,

A friend called me today. He's building a personal mobility vehicle, and 
acquired a Curtis 1227-2406 controller on ebay for it. I can't find any 
data on this particular model.


It appears to be a Curtis 1207B model (24v, 200a, microprocessor 
programmable). The 1207 has a whole range of options that have to be set 
with a special programming box (which he doesn't have). Since his 
application should be pretty light duty for this controller, the hope is 
that its stock programming might be good enough. But that still leaves 
open questions like which of half a dozen different throttle assemblies 
it's programmed to use (potbox, hall effect, wig-wag, etc.)


Does anyone have any information on it?

[EVDL] EVLN: VW wooing Ford’s pretty sad looking compliance EV lineup

VW Open To Sharing MEB Platform For Electric Vehicles With Ford

Ford’s electric vehicle lineup is looking pretty sad these days as your only
choice is to pick up one of the few remaining Focus Electric models that are
only available in a handful of states.

The model never caught on with consumers and Ford wasn’t even particularly
thrilled about it as company’s global director of electrification, Ted
Cannis, effectively called it a compliance car that’s “not too exciting.”
It’s not hard to understand way the model was such a failure as the 2016
Focus Electric had a range of just 76 miles (122 km). Ford eventually
installed a better battery pack, but even that couldn’t make the Focus
Electric competitive as the range was just 115 miles (185 km) according to
EPA estimates.

Ford’s Mustang-inspired electric vehicle promises to fix the Focus’ many
shortcomings, but the company hasn’t reveal much about the crossover and it
already faced backlash after hinting it could be called the Mach 1. Aside
from a few teasers, little is known about the model except that it will be
launched in 2020 and have a range of approximately 300 miles (483 km).

It’s one of 16 new electric vehicles the company is working on and all of
them are slated to arrive by 2022. While Ford is obviously pretty invested
in EVs at this point, Volkswagen CFO Frank Witter suggested their
partnership talks with Ford could result in the Blue Oval getting access to
the company’s MEB platform which has been specifically designed for electric
vehicles.

As Automotive News reports, Witter said “Whether we might provide access to
other brands outside of the VW Group is theoretically possible, but there is
no decision.” That leaves the door open for Ford to use the platform, but
that’s far from certain at this point.

It also remains unclear if Ford would even be interested in using the MEB
platform as the company’s own electric vehicle program is pretty advanced at
this point. However, access to the platform could provide Ford with a quick
and affordable way to bring electric vehicles to market.

Kia Releases Niro EV First Impressions Video

First Impression | e-Niro | Kia
]

What do folks at the 2018 Paris Motor Show think of the Kia e-Niro [EV]?

First impressions of the 2019 Kia e-Niro have been outstanding. Most reviews
we’ve read, written, and shared have been packed with a plethora of positive
takeaways. Now, Kia’s new all-electric crossover has made its way to the
2018 Paris Motor Show and many people are getting to see it in the flesh for
the first time. Of course, they’re unable to test drive the car, but they
can see it, size it up, sit inside, and learn all about its specs.

Kia’s new video is brief, but it does a nice job of showing off the e-Niro,
complete with people’s quotes across the bottom of the screen. Overall, the
attendees seem impressed by the crossover’s styling, overall size, interior
space, cabin quality, and range. It’s evident that Kia is making great
strides with its vehicles in general, and especially exciting that the
Korean automaker is making a concerted effort in the electric vehicle space.

Unfortunately, these cars won’t be readily available in many areas, at least
initially. Kia and Hyundai EV production isn’t intended to be large-scale at
first, and on our shores, the vehicles will only be sold in select states.
However, this is still the early stages of what could turn out to be a much
more substantial push for the EV segment is a whole.
