Legacy EV Launches Powertrain Kit for Under $10K
Legacy EV, a provider of aftermarket electric vehicle (EV) applications and educational programs, has introduced an EV electrification kit for under $10,000.
The kit was developed from the powertrain components of a Nissan Leaf, repurposing components of the first EV available to the mass market, the company said.
In addition to using the Nissan components, the Legacy EV kit includes an aftermarket vehicle control unit that manages charging, motor control, brake lights, reverse lights, pre-charging, HV relays and more. Installation can include the existing gearbox to run half-shaft axles for front-engine, front-wheel-drive, or rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive donor vehicles. Alternatively, it utilizes a TorqueBox for single-speed gear reduction, or a manual transmission adaptor plate if owners want to retain the factory transmission.
