Default CR-X EV Conversation

Hi Folks,
Hope all is well with everyone.
Just wanted to get your opinion on a EV conversion on a 1.5 dual carb CR-X I own.

Was doing some research on the web and there are ev kits you can buy or I was thinking of buying a crashed EV Nissan leaf or something from the UK.

Anyone know of any Crx that has been electrified?

There's surely one out there in the world of YouTube or at least an EF Civic EV

Everything is possible with enough welding and hammering. I think fitting the batteries would take a huge amount of space if you wanted something with a bit of range

This is pretty cool...came across it a while back but i don't think there's been any update from this video. It doesn't look cheap though [|)]

I’m not sure it would drive anything like a CRX once it’s done - I think the Leaf motor and batteries come in at around 450kg, unless you decide to go for less batteries + less range.
