Observing The High Value Of Electric Vehicles, The Multinational Ford Created An Engine Capable Of Transforming Any Combustion Car Into An Electric Vehicle
In the United States, it is common for automakers to sell crate engines to enthusiasts, complete or partial engines specifically made for restorations and customer projects. The good news is that in addition to its traditional combustion V8s, the multinational Ford will also start selling an engine capable of transforming any combustion car into an electric vehicle.

The unit has over 285 horsepower and a torque of 43.9 kgfm, more than double that of most 2.0 turbo engines available for sale on the market. The engine has plenty of power available from the initial RPMs, as is common with this type of unit.
Another benefit of the Ford product is its compact size. According to Ford, the engine, named Eluminator, measures only 57 cm in length, 37 cm in height, and 34.5 cm in width.

The unit that promises to transform any combustion car into an electric vehicle is even smaller than a manual transmission. For now, Ford has not stated whether it will offer other components to transform combustion cars into electric vehicles, including high-voltage batteries or inverters, but these components are already offered by other automakers or system suppliers. Ford also did not reveal the price of the engine, but it is estimated that the Eluminator will be cheaper than a combustion V8.
Converting Used Or Classic Vehicles To Electric Becomes Popular
The conversion of combustion cars into electric vehicles has become popular worldwide, as despite being sustainable, electric cars are still an expensive alternative for consumers. Even automakers are creating alternatives to enter the conversion sector. A company in the UK transformed the Mini Cooper into an electric vehicle using a Nissan Leaf system.
The electric Mini has a range of 110 km using its battery, which is about 20 kWh. London Electric Cars does not specify the motor of the electric vehicle, but it is known that the model can deliver a power of 110 horsepower and 28.5 kgfm.
With the electric version, using the Nissan Leaf system, the company aimed to make the Mini an affordable option not just for London residents, but for the whole world.
Company Develops Universal Motor And Becomes A Highlight
Swindon, like Ford, produced an electric motor that can transform any combustion model into an electric car. The motor has 110 horsepower, with a torque of 13.8 kgfm.
The model weighs about 50 kg and measures 4.41 cm in width and 3.84 cm in length. While it is not one of the most powerful, it is average for popular cars sold in Brazil. For those seeking greater range and power, instead of electric cars, they can opt for hybrids.
