I have made 4 EVs in lab settings, and I would very much not recommend doing a conversion unless you are an emthusiast. 2k will get you nowhere.

You could maybe do some 15 mph conversion golf cart style with lead acid batteries for local block or farm use or whatever. For other use cases, don't do it.



This is what I was worried about. It's unfortunate when subsidies end up only making a few people's hobby cheaper.
