Zelectric is bringing vintage VW Bugs into the 21st century, turning the gas-fueled classics into modern day electric vehicles.

NICE!! 

 Wouldnt mind shipping my 1961 San Diego beetle back home to turn her into an electric daily driver.

hi, how Mach is the conversion? I am from Peru and I'm very interested

[tehashi]

Hey, as long as they don't take away the front trunk then i think this is pretty sweet.

[dwarfer]

It’s all great but you only get around 100 miles of range that’s not enough

[imagrandpa]

What would a conversion cost today?
And range?

[okwhatever]

I want one but just to convert it’s like 25-27, 000+, again we favor the rich n rude!

Electric power is not there yet because of batteries. In less than 10 years we can see whole different batteries and only than E-conversions shall be feasible.

If it's an original beetle, don't call it classic after you have removed the classic engine.

this is the most stupid thing you could do
