THIS DIY Tesla Powered Cobra pulls out all the stops to be the best electric sports car!
I contacted Matt through Facebook after he posted the detail on this high spec Tesla Large drive unit powered Cobra kit car. The car and location did not disappoint. Well done Matt on this fantastic example of what is possible with EV conversion technology! Shout out to Fellten for enabling such machines, the owner who decided to build it and again to Matt for the creation! At the start of 2021 I created Chargeheads to ELECTRIFY petrolheads essentially get more car enthusiasts into electric cars. An Electric Petrolhead if you like....A CHARGEHEAD!!!! To start I decided to do an EV conversion and went on an amazing journey visiting many of the big companies in this field. I selected the not so well known TVR Tasmin 350i, AKA the Wedge (#tvrwedgee ) to electrify after careful consideration of other cars. As I already had a TVR Griffith which I enjoyed driving and with my passion for raw, powerful, tail happy cars with no driver aids TVR was the obvious choice when selecting a car to electrify. The 2nd build is the #SpecialTrikee project a 1970's BSA Aerial 3 Tricycle Scooter that me and my mate Vinny have turned into a e-Trike. I use this for local trips and it's a load of fun. Mrs Chargehead calls it my special scooter.....that originally had a 50cc two stroke motor and has a 250 watt motor in it, of course. The Latest project is Rustee #RusteeTesla the Tesla build to make a Model 3 Long Range....well.....better! Better in looks, handling and performance while keeping her a monster mile daily and the efficiency intact. Focusing again on modifying with used parts to keep it green, where possible. I hope to not only entertain with ChargeheadsUK Channel and the #TVRWedgee, #SpecialTrikee and #RusteeTesla builds, but also to inspire watchers to create their own greener transport. With the help of leaders in their field like Ralph Hosier (Engineer, designer, builder of special vehicles, teacher, writer, TV presenter and trouble maker. Ralph teaches Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Training (IMI Techsafe), builds some amazing one off projects and most of all is a top bloke! He's the engineer behind #TVRWedgee the Electric TVR. So let the fun begin......safely in a controlled environment using the right EV safety equipment! ;0) Did I mention myself and Ralph have also done an EV Conversion safety video as well.
