Welcome to Left Coast Electric inc. Please read the FAQ section to get all the answers about the cost of a conversion.

LCE is now converting AND restoring classic cars. Most are of the ABC's, that is Arcane British Cars. But any car up to the early 70's would be great. Why this time period you ask? Because, there is less plastic. The drivetrain on an electric conversion will last at least half a million miles. So why not drive something cool that doesn't have a lot of plastic that is going to rot and not be replaceable. But at Left Coast Electric the sky is the limit. How about a completely fiberglass 65 Mustang on a tube chassis with 4 wheel independent suspension? Just a thought looking for the right customer...

LCE is completely committed to lithium polymer batteries and AC drive systems. These may be more expensive initially but are cheaper in the long run. Although lead acid is cheaper, it is just so easy to ruin a pack of batteries, that most owners will have replaced them 3 of 4 times before the lithiums go bad.

LCE is the worlds only electric car conversion company that is certified diamond status by the IEEC. (International Energy Efficiency Council) The IEEC is committed to energy conservation and energy avoidance, not just efficiency. According the the IECC the average home consumes 30 kwh per day, and half of that is wasted. Anything that has a remote, a clock, sleep mode, or a wall transformer uses energy when it's not in use. Just plug it into a power strip and turn it off. The energy wasted by the average home is enough to drive an electric car 40 to 60 miles a day.
