Time flew quickly as we discussed about electric driving with the inspector while the car was being checked. Everything safety related was ok so Corolla passed the inspection. A bleeding drive shaft rubber boot shown in the picture below was found though, it will be replaced soon.
It was the most pleasant inspection visit that I can remember, thank you Lempäälän Autokatsastus!
The car is now working very well and I'm using it every day. Daily driving is now a lot easier as the range of about 75km gives more freedom and I don't have to charge it everywhere I go:) I do not have much plans for upgrading it now, although I have to admit that I have though of different ways of increasing its power..
But in the meantime I will concentrate more on my open source motor controller: motocone.blogspot.com. Also during winter I am going to get more experiences by electrifying a small Stiga Garden lawn tractor using Motocone motor controllers and a couple of automotive alternators as its motors. This low cost project will be shared in: the-electric-machine.blogspot.com
