Custom Volvo 850 with a 1020 hp Tesla Plaid Electric Motors

Published in engineswapdepot.com

JP Performance built this custom Volvo wagon called “Volto” with help from KT4 Performance. The team started with a 1993 Volvo 850 wagon and installed a Tesla Model S Plaid tri-motor powertrain. This means the car has one electric motor in front and two electric motors in rear. Combined they produce 1020 hp (760 kW) and 1050 lb-ft (1423 Nm) of torque. The unique powertrain allows the car to run in FWD, RWD, and AWD. Power for the motor is held in a custom battery packs held in the factory Volvo engine bay and inside the cabin behind the driver. The wagon rides on KW V4 adjustable coilovers with eight-piston front and rear brakes. The unique appearance is thanks to a custom widebody desigend by Mean Machines and built by HOTE Studio. Underneath the wider arches are mbDESIGN custom wheels wearing Toyo tires (275/35, 315/30).
