There is no way you will ever look genuine, you lack the credibility to get past even the most cursory government funding checks (lax though they are) to pull off such a con. I don't see you getting further than an agency job on an EV production line.

Yes I did, you couldn't make it up could you! Irrc from BBC evening news, he put the expenditure down as something that said 'I'm doing this' if they'd bothered to read between the lines. :palm:

Treez's problem is that he lacks that sort of imagination, although he does have some very curious ambitions all in his own little world.

While we don't quite know what the OP's motives truly are, don't necessarily assume he's being dead serious.

In particular, given his opinions stated in many other threads, I would consider this one thread as provoking trolling.

What goes around comes around. This was a Greek innovation in low cost EVs from the early 1970s. The Enfield 8000. Zero to 30mph in ........ downhill it could go that fast. Designed by a graduate of M.I.T. no less.

Don't laugh, this was a serious attempt to make automobiles free of OPEC. That's if OPEC didn't take control of world's battery lead mines.

Morocco, to my knowledge. It's a repackaged Citroen Ami.

Citroen Ami:
6kW (8hp) electric motor
75km (47mi) range ideally, realistically around 55km/34mi
Top speed is dependent upon the weight of the driver and passenger, but around 28 mph with a strong tailwind
No climate control/heating functions
No ABS/ESP (but to be honest you probably don't need it)

It's a fun little car, maybe works for an urbanite, but I am not sure it will catch on outside the city!

Does it matter?  Most cars move in both directions.

Well that was unexpected, the troll wants help to do his job again.
