The Electric Vehicle Project

Updated July 2009


On June 14th 2002, I won an Ebay auction for a 1994 US Electricar Geo Prizm. On these pages I will describe some of my issues in buying one of these things in "guaranteed broken" condition, and the steps needed to get it back on the road.

My US Electricar links:

  • June 23, 2002: The car arrives and assessing the condition
  • September 2002: First drives and blowing up the pack.
  • April 2003: Replacing a blown pack, and lessons on a new one.
  • November 2004: Another new pack, important lessons learned
  • April 2009: The pack is replaced with Universal Battery 12-260's for $2,000!

  • PROTECTING YOUR DOLPHIN!: This set of pages will discuss what you need to do to keep your US Electricar car or truck running properly. Read these pages. (coming soon)
