05-28-2010 FREE SHIPPING - for a limited time.

In honor of Memorial Day we've decided to offer Free Shipping within the continental US on our EV Miata conversion kits. This offer applies to all standard priced orders - not to discounted offers such as Electric School.

For some of you, that amounts to a savings of well over $200!   If you're looking for a reason to get started on your conversion, this may be what you've been waiting for.

Our EV Miata conversion kit provides the racks, brackets and mounts needed to convert a first generation Mazda Miata to all electric drive.  The motor, controller, charger, and so forth, needed to complete the conversion are available through multiple suppliers. This approach is unique in the market, and allows you to take advantage of the best prices for the parts you need as you need them.

How long will Free Shipping be offered? We don't know. So if you want to take advantage of this offer, you should act soon.

03-24-2010 Only one week left !

Our EV Miata Kit's special introductory price of $2000.00 USD will expire at the end of the month.
The kit will return to the standard $2,500.00 list price starting April 1.
If you want to take advantage of this $500 discount, you will need to act soon!

03-24-2010 Electric School program

We at EV Works LLC believe that electric vehicles are the future of transportation. We also believe that schools shape the future. Encouraging schools to teach about electric transportation is a natural extension of these two beliefs. With this in mind, we have decided to launch a special educational pricing package called Electric School.
With the Electric School program Middle Schools, High Schools, Colleges and Universities will have access to a substantial discount to include EV Miata electric conversion projects in their course offerings.
Furthermore, student groups who want to demonstrate electric vehicle technology can also participate in this program. This allows students engaged in environmental, technology or science programs to have access to these same discounts for their EV Miata projects. Since hazardous voltages are present, adult sponsorship and supervision is required for student group participation.

So what level of discount are we offering?

The Electric School price for the EV Miata kit is $1,000 (US)
- that's less than half of the $2,500 list price!
Standard shipping rates apply.

To see if you qualify for this special, send an email to electric_school@evmiata.com

10-20-2009 Web Site Update

The new web site is finally up.

I'd like to thank all who took part in this project - especially the testers.
Orders for the kit can now be placed on the Pricing page.

The kit includes all of the components that are unique to a first generation Miata conversion - battery racks, motor mount, assorted brackets and a detailed installation guide. The motor, controller charger and other standard off the shelf items are purchased separately - giving you the flexibility to find the best deals and to buy parts when you are ready to install them.

The racks, mount and brackets are fabricated out of steel, precision welded and primered. We are proud of our kit and stand behind it with a full one year warranty.

08-31-2009 Palo Alto EV Rally

The EV Rally on Saturday August 29th was a great success. Soon after setting up the space I had a constant stream of educated interested EV enthusiasts checking out our car. Lots of good questions comments and good words. A number of people were interested in the kit was are offering, and there were a few who were interested in a completed car rather than attempting the conversion themselves.

08-29-2009 A Major Award!

At this years Silicon Valley's EV Rally and Show we were presented with the award for the Best Classic EV Conversion. This is quite an honor coming from one of the oldest chapters of the Electric Auto Association - founded way back in 1967!
I'd like to thank the EAASV president, Jerry Pohorsky for this award.

THANK YOU!

07-03-2009 EV Miata on TV

The local ABC affiliate did a short piece on the electric cars being shown at the Marin County Fair. I had a chance to talk with some of the other car owners/entrepreneurs who were showing their cars (all great people) and the reporter, Wayne Freedman, turned out to be a great guy as well. He asked good questions and seemed to understand the answers, to my surprise. I had about 5 minutes to tell my story and when it was done he asked if later they could take a ride in the car.

The piece aired that night, but only a few seconds of my interview made it into the final segment.
Here's the link to the full story:
