Top speed 65MPH Scirocco.. EV Conversion

[marc at getty.net (Marc Getty)]

There is no way that thing weighs 4000 pounds. An engineless Mk2 must
weigh in at <2000 pounds, if each of the 16 batteries weigh 60 pounds
each (a high estimate at that) it would still weigh less then 3000
pounds....

Nice car, but the 40 mile range is ridiculous.
