A state-of-the-art, flexible, and eco-friendly powertrain for high-performance electric conversion for all kinds of vehicles.
Game Geeks News is proud to bring you another exciting new project currently live on Kickstarter. Darian Thelen (Mayen, Germany) has a workshop near Koblenz and a Bachelor's degree. The conversion of his classic car from 1988, which was converted into a high-performance and future-oriented electric car, was successfully completed. Darian's goal with the help of Kickstarter is to use the high-performance powertrain for as many vehicles as possible. For a quieter and more environmentally friendly future.
Sustainable, powerful, and flexible powertrain by Thelen Electric Conversion.
The product is a powertrain with state-of-the-art technology that can be used flexibly. In addition, it is the most environmentally friendly way to convert vehicles and thus cause fewer emissions when driving in the future.
Thelen is a German manufacturer, located in the Eifel region, close to the heart of German motorsport, the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Thelen has started to manufacture a flexible powertrain for a large number of different vehicles. This was successfully used in a test vehicle, tested and proved its worth. With this powertrain, existing resources can be further utilized.
In order to demonstrate and test the enormous performance capability of the powertrain, the initial focus was on the conversion of classic cars and sports cars. This is what can be seen in the video below to demonstrate what the Thelen drive train is capable of. This is best shown in motorsports or sports cars. As well as with highly individual vehicles like classic cars. However, the drive train has been designed and developed from the ground up to be flexible, so that a number of different vehicles can be converted.
But why convert vehicles to electric drive? Millions of cars, buses, and trucks are on the road every day, emitting pollutants with every kilometer they travel. Scrapping all these vehicles in order to build new ones cannot be the most sensible solution. Many of the vehicles on the road still have excellent substance. Conversion saves far more emissions here than disposing of the old car and rebuilding the new one.
But what makes the powertrain and the conversions special? The highly complex components used were developed by the manufacturer for perfect functionality in the vehicles intended for this purpose. and this is exactly where Thelen comes in. With a control unit including its own software from the professional supplier ESDI EV, also from Germany, the components are strapped in such a way that the functionality in the powertrain is exactly as in the original vehicle. This means that as soon as the components are installed in your new vehicle, the cooling, power control, and safety functions work exactly as the manufacturer intended.
By supporting this crowdfunder Darian wishes to continue to improve and expand the successfully tested drive train so that it can be integrated into all vehicles. You can read more in-depth on Kickstarter. Rewards include a virtual meeting, consultation, and feasibility study of your project, a test drive in a vehicle in which a version of the high-performance powertrain has been used, and a step-by-step guide to build a drive-train outside Germany, with detailed step-by-step instructions.
