Presuming you are asking this of me. I am using a Mawdsley compound wound 120-volt DC traction motor, rated at 24 hp continuous duty. It is already mounted to the original 5-speed manual transmission, retaining the clutch. Controller will be set to deliver approximately 115 hp (87 kW) peak. Estimate that all-electric range should be about 30 km (75% depth of discharge on 210 kg of lead-acid batteries). Hybrid range should be about 800 km (40 liter tank for biodiesel). Normal commuting should be done all-electric, assuming plug available at both ends of trip.
