It turns out that the larger the pack, the less capacity fade will occur. The delivery truck world is very rigorous. The payload weight can swing wildly each day — 3, lbs. Trucks can make hundreds of stops per day, and twice as many during the holidays. The doors are constantly opening, so heating the cabin can be tough.

But the show must always go on — missing or delaying deliveries is not an option, so reliability is critical. AMP is confident that it has designed a robust electric drivetrain.

In April, the company announced the completion of third-party reliability testing. Accelerated durability testing by the Transportation Research Center took place in Ohio, and ran for 4, miles in the middle of winter. Burns proudly reports passing with flying colors. With a drivetrain developed and optimized in gas-to-electric conversions, and now a truck-building factory, AMP is on a path reminiscent of another phenomenal EV story, Tesla Motors.

This is a good candidate for conversion. The is a special Porshce. Some purists may call you a heretic for considering a conversion on this car.

The Longhood Porsche is another good candidate that you can pickup within a good range of prices.
