Dual Motor Electric Vehicle Drivetrain With Powerglide 2 Speed Transmission Walkthrough by EV West

Ex EVtv intern Matt Auber from EV West is showing us the process of coupling two DC Warp 11 Motors and adding a 2-speed PowerGlide Transmission

This is the exact same power plant of their 95' BMW M3 Electric that went up Pikes Peak last year



"Here's a brief 10 minute video that gives a nice overview of the EV West 2 speed Powerglide transmission that runs without a torque converter direct drive to 2 coupled Warp 11 motors. Depending on the voltage and current, these twin motors can put out well over 1000 lb/ft of torque, and 600+ horsepower. We used this motor and transmission combination to power our BMW M3 to the summit of Pikes Peak in 2012 setting an all time record for street legal electric cars. The strength and reliability of this system is key. For more information regarding this bolt in drive train, please visit http://evwest.com for the latest updates."

EVCCON 2013 debriefing



Oops, Norvegian Ferry on fire because of a charging EV conversion using a BMS ... (few years ago, now these conversions are forbidden in Norway)


REAP Systems: They could not attend EVCCON 2013 so they sent a video to Jack on Battery Terminal Cleaning / Corrosion Protection


EV West won almost everything at EVCCON 2013 bringing their killer 1995 BMW M3 with twin Warp 11 Motors 


Jack is testing the new NMC Battery with High Discharges

A new intern at EVtv from Australia, he came to EVCCON and simply asked JAck to stay and work with him for a few months, which he accepted :-)

=> Results: 2 cells killed during Ultra High Discharge Tests :-(
