Toyota Hilux - EV Build Strategy

In this video I go over some of the reasons why I chose the components I installed in my Hilux electric conversion as well as the reasoning for their position within the truck. Simplicity and serviceability were prime factors throughout the project. Between using the Tesla Model S Gen 2 on board level 2 charger as well as the DC to DC converter (DCDC). I also discuss why I chose the Tesla Model S small drive unit versus other common electric motor options. Thanks for watching and enjoy!
