The DIY Electric Car

An electric car is very beneficial because it is a substitute for fuel automobiles using electric motors for propulsion instead of usual propulsion techniques like internal combustion engine. Electric cars are exclusively a variety of electric vehicles that are intended for using as a form of road-going automobile. Usually on-board battery packs are a source of their power. Due to the source being electric powered was the possible reason for theelectric cars to be believed as battery electric
vehicles. During the mid-19th and the early 20th century, the electric cars got popular. This was the time when electricity became one of the favored methods for automobile propulsion. This provided a comfort level and ease of operation that the gasoline cars could not achieve at the time.


Most people use DIY electric car kits for converting their cars from gas into electric powered. These kits have gained pretty popularity today because of its advantage for economic and environmental reasons.




Nowadays, there is a hike in oil prices. This economic downfall has forced many people to look for ways to save their money. Electric cars are cheap and does not cost too much for maintaining. One will be able to save money that would have burned in fuel costs. This would reduce the expenses linked with maintenance and repairing a gasoline-powered engine.



One reason is that the global warming is beginning to effect all over the world. Electric cars have no emissions which makes them clean. One can do his part in protecting the environment by using electric cars.

Other benefits that can be achieved from owning electric cars are its excellent top speeds and a quiet drive. Its electric motor does not make noise as compared to gas engines. It also has a benefit during long drives that one does not have to stop at gas stations for refueling anymore.


The conversion process of DIY electric car is really very simple. The idea behind it is to remove the internal combustion engine replacing it with a direct current electric motor. As the engine is not present, all its associated components like the radiator, gas tank, fuel lines and exhaust pipe have to be removed also. Most free spaces in the EV will then be used for storing deep cycle batteries. This is the reason that for choosing the donor car for conversion to an electric car, one has to ensure that there is enough space for batteries as well as good ventilation.

The instructions present on DIY car kits are easy to understand and follow. It would be beneficial to own an electric car and enjoy its benefits which will have a positive impact on the economy and environment.

Land rover Freelander 2 - Improving On The Good

 After the successful first generation Freelander 1 the Rover Group produced between 1998 and 2006, it now unveiled its successor in the Landrover Freelander 2 unveiled at the 2006 British International Motor Show. It was released in Europe in 2007 and was sold in the American markets as the Land Rover LR2.  Before getting officially announced at the motor show, the second generation Freelander was presented at the Kensington Roof Gardens in a lavish occasion featuring tennis sports celebrity Maria Sharapova before a team of journalists and media professionals.



A Better Freelander

Production of the Freelander 2 was moved from the Solihull plant in Birmingham to Halewood in England near Liverpool.  It now shared production of the Jaguar X-Type automobile.  It used a chassis based on the global midsized EUCD platform (European C/D class) that accommodated a larger transversely-mounted Volvo SI6 3.2 liter inline 6-cylinder petrol engine that also powered the new Volvo S80.

It came with 6-speed manual and automatic transmission.  The UK version didn't get this engine but instead got a 2.2 liter DW12 common rail turbo-charged diesel engine jointly developed with the French PSA (Peugeot Societe Anonyme) to power its new Peugeot Citroen cars.


With improved ground clearance and off-road handling capabilities, the second generation Freelander matched the Land Rover tradition for off-road superiority found in its Discovery and Defender line and proved superior to its European SUV rivals. In addition, the Freelander 2 sported improved interior quality, road safety features as well as modified Terrain Response off-road system used in the new Discovery III and upscale Range Rover.  The Rover Group and the Swedish Haldex Traction AB jointly developed its four-wheel drive system using the third generation Haldex coupling which was also fitted in the complete 2005 to 2008 Volvo models



The Landrover Freelander 2 was introduced in the US markets as the LR2 HSE in 2007 sporting the 6-cylinder 3.2 liter inline petrol engine capable of 230 hp on a 6-speed automatic transmission gear train.   It came with the luxurious interior appointments the US markets had become accustomed seeing in an SUV but was bettered with a Cold Climate System that heated the front windscreen and front seats at two heating levels as well as a heated windscreen water jet, a 14-speaker 440-watt surround system from Alpine, touch navigation screens, and bi-xenon headlights to mention some.
The Latest Freelander 2 TD4_e

The Rover Group launched the Freelander 2 TD4_e in 2009 which marked the first SUV in the UK to use an eco-friendly stop-start technology to economize fuel consumption and reduce CO2 emissions.  The  in the designation stands for e-Terrain Technologies presumably referring to 'earth' and was Land Rover's answer to the emerging trends in environmentally friendly road vehicles.


With the e-technology, the engine stops when in idle gear and  instantly resumes when engaging the clutch pedal. A heavy-duty starter motor acts as a generator to recover energy from its regenerative braking using capacitors to store energy and restart the engine without engaging the starter battery.  The e-Terrain is expected to be used in subsequent hybrid Freelander models.

The Dacia Duster project was born from a simple premise that there is a real need in the world for, comfortable and affordable 4x4 rough, classes that are currently not served well. Recognizing this gap, the Renault group decided to develop an all-terrain vehicles originally intended for emerging markets. European customers' needs are also taken into account from the beginning of the project.

In the market (Russia, Brazil, etc.), the middle class aspires to own a modern car that reflects their social status. At the same time, they want a strong car most reliable, flexible and able to stand up to the demands of the climate and conditions that can be difficult and diverse (long distance, difficult terrain, used in large built-up area). Bid now largely dominated by imported SUVs, which are often beyond the means of pricing the middle classes. In Europe, Dacia's success has highlighted the need for a modern, reliable and affordable cars. Although many 4x4s and SUVs when large enough, it ignores the call for a vehicle, all-terrain functional affordable, profitable and not expensive SUVs often do not match the needs of off-road driving.

Dacia Duster benefits from Renault's recognized expertise in the field of safety. News features Bosch ABS 8.1 4x4, and electronic brakeforce distribution EBV and emergency brake assist. On the passive safety front, a Duster Dacia come as standard with two front airbags (depending on market) and three-point safety belts with load limiters for the front seats. Depending on the version, the two heads of lateral / thorax side airbags mounted in the driver's and front passenger airbags to provide extra protection in case of side impact. Pyrotechnic pretensioners for front seats (depending on version) complete Duster Dacia's retention system. In addition to firmly hold the breasts in place, they restrict the movement forward in the case of a frontal impact with a belt tightening around the chest and lap.

Particular attention has been paid to anti-corrosion protection thanks to some precautions:
  • Underbody wax-injected hollow sections and open the panel.
  • Fragrant resin sealing of exterior joints.
  • Treatments extra wax underbody mechanical components.
  • Stone-chip protection for the underbody, sill and wheel arches.
