ELECTRIC DEFENDER RANGE TEST. Will it do what we say it does?! Will I get range anxiety?!

Range range range! The first thing I get asked by anyone ever!! Today I go on a range test in one of our recent conversions. Watch to see how far I get!
She's running the Fellten UBP55E battery pack, a 280hp Tesla Model 3 motor and our bolt in plug in kit!
This EV conversion costs £50,000 + VAT. Get in touch on our website to find out more about this conversion or the other cars that we've done!

'It's not going to be a boring vdeo.....it'll be quite boring.'. I shall reward such honesty by watching the full video. Bravo.

[@electriccarconverts]

Haha!! Thank you!!

interesting video. been planning my jeep conversion and everyone telling me i need over 100kw to get over 100 miles of range. That didnt seem right to me so good to see a real life test. FYI probably similar results to my MG ZS EV so pretty good id say.

[@electriccarconverts]

You definitely don't need 1kWh per mile, thats a huge amount! We base off around 2.5 miles per kWh.

Another great and insightful video Barnaby.

Love the closing comments, more range than anyone should ever have to drive in a defender in one trip. Air suspension upgrades the next option to add then

Does the conversion retain the ODB2 port? If it does, is the Fellten system compatible with it. If so an app like car scanner ELM ODB2 could potentially give you info like kWh available, battery temperatures, energy draw, charging speeds etc.
Something else you might want to consider if you are recording more driving videos is a window camera mount and maybe something like a gopro or pocket 2 camera and external mic (e.g. Rode wireless Go II)
