Pete, we have around $40,000 of electric parts in this Hilux. Just over half of that is batteries. Dale has put in a lot of other extras on top of that as well.
Cost to convert really depends on what vehicle you use and what you want to achieve with it. We have a big battery pack ($22000) and $6000 worth of chargers ($1000 each). We wanted fast charging and long distance driving. Most conversions will have half that battery size and 1 or 2 chargers. My EV Hilux only has 300Ah (half the size of this Hilux, Dale's Hilux), but I am using Winston batteries which are a bit more expensive than EVE. Winston are known and trusted to be good.
