Hey, This is my first post here, so i hope im in the right place.

Im in the plans of converting one of all my project cars to electric, I don't now which one yet ;)

And in the chase of part i got offerd a deal of a complete driveunit from a New fiat 500E 2021 for 800€ and this is
including the motor, inverter, some controlboxes a lot of Hv wiring, charge port, throttle pedals fuses, Yeah you name it, Almost everything except the battery. I cant really find any information except the one on fiats sale pages.

So my questions are

Has anyone used an inverter from a New fiat 500e with any luck?

And if the inverter dosnt work, Does thsi sound like a good deal for a 87Kw motor with miscellaneous hv wiring?


Thanks in advance

The deal is ok but I think you'll have an easier pathway with an Outlander rear motor. It has been used a lot here, easily controllable via CAN and readily available on ebay etc.

Thanks, I will take a look at this, too if if available in my country.
