Re: crz hybrid dual motor conversion

I believe the Honda IMA motor is integrated into the flywheel side of the engine which makes it pretty hard or impossible to do what you are suggesting. The IMA is pretty weak with around a 10kW output as well. So you would be better off just focusing on increasing the Leaf Motor output if you want...

I wouldn’t go over 500v

504 max voltage from a 120s pack should be good then right?😏😏 good 444v nominal. Just to make the motor spin faster?

Why doesn’t anyone do this already?👀

The EM61 was used on the early Leafs up until about 2013
So everything 2012 and below is the EM61 and everything 2013 and up is the EM57?

I think I see a 2013 model assembly in my area 👀
