EV swapped Mazda Miata MX5 // The Late Brake Show

[@pauliboo2]

I’m an avionics engineer (on the Typhoon jet) and actually learnt more about ev tech in this one video than I’ve learnt in the hundred other videos I’ve seen! So thanks, can we have more from Zero EV in the future? Perhaps a build of the Figaro?

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Blimey, thank you Paul. Always a bit tricky knowing how detailed to get with build type vids, but I believe that people are intrigued about EV conversions and it is exciting to show the vast array of options and specs you can choose from. Thanks for watching TLBS.

[@grantadamson3478]

What did Jonny do?

[@kevinfleming9919]

Nice to see guys like this doing kit conversions for cars in a way that doesn't require cutting up the car to do it. Makes it easier for people to do on their own car in their home/garage, and for small businesses that restore old/classic cars so they can concentrate on the body and aesthetics of the car and be able to just drop in an electric drivetrain. Helps preserve not only the looks and functions of the car but also leaves the safety features of the car in place without having to cut into and affecting crumple zones, and not having to add a bunch of braces welded in to keep the car from falling apart because of modifications done to the chassis.

[@oddyseus99]

Just take my money now. I've driven MX5s for over 20 years, NA, NB and NC, and boy would I love this. Best of all worlds.

[@808GT]

Got my NB for 20 years now. I would convert it but I would want more punch than that and more range.

[@fat_biker]

@@808GT I think they made clear they could do that for you, but not at the original weight...

Wonder if I could order this as a kit with the Miata based 124 Rallye.... It'd be a lot more fun then the 1.4

[@normang3668]

I think it's an exciting prospect that the only limiting factor of these EVs is the battery tech, which will inevitably improve.

[@kassios]

@@808GT same here! I have an NBFL for close to 20 years and I would definitely do this conversion with more power and a little more range. I could trim the weight elsewhere if need be.

[@barryeaton8907]

Great job on the MX5 but... I owned an MX5 for a few years and loved driving it and the best part was hitting the gear changes on the bends and corners. As far as I am concerned that is an essential part of the fun. It would be perfect if it had the gears

[@callummunro5400]

Yeah I was thinking something similar. It’s not actually any faster, it’s a bit heavier, doesn’t go as far and misses some driver involvement. So why would you do it?

[@questioner1596]

Many older EV conversions kept the original transmissions, but that would keep weight higher and destroy their excellent packaging and balance. Plus, the transmission is kind of silly when the motor has such a broad torque curve and big rpm spread. You also no longer need a clutch pedal, because there is so little rotational mass, letting off the go pedal during shifts is enough.

[@questioner1596]

@Rubedo Alaberti, I do prefer manual transmissions in my internal combustion engine (ICE) cars, that wasn't my point. When converting a car to EV, some builders keep the manual transmission, but remove the clutch pedal. The electric motor doesn't need to idle at a stop, and there is less rotational mass so pressing the clutch on shifts is also not needed. Shifting gears is also not often beneficial because of the electric motor's wide torque curve. My point is that keeping a manual transmission in an electric conversion loses some of the fun of a manual paired to an ICE.

[@marcob1729]

@@callummunro5400 well I'd do it to get a commuter car that I barely pay to upkeep or "fuel" up, still fun to drive, and costs less than a new car. I could drive an MX-5 convertible or get a used weird box thing that BMW made for about the same price and range. The convertible seems like a solid choice!

I have improved it over time. It started with a 214v 19kwhr battery pack capable of driving its ac motor at 40kw. It now has a 400v 32kwhr battery driving the same motor at 70kw. All the electronics including BMS, j1772 charging and instruments were designed by me, because they were not readily available back then. I still have the gearbox and use 1st 2nd and 3rd without a clutch. Unfortunately Azure went bust around 2012, but I have driven over 120000km and still take it out for a spin weekly.

When people stopped using horses for transport, & started using them just to have fun, a lot of people discovered how much fun cars & motorbikes were, & gave up bothering with horses at all. A lot, but not everybody.
