First test drive, charging paint job and more. Vw golf Citystromer, ev conversion.
Ғылым және технология
Volkswagen golf, citystromer was originally fitted with an electric motor together with a five-speed gear box. Sadly the original motor was gone for many years ago and that’s why I will try to restore the old feeling of the car, but with a new motor and a modern charging system instead, so it will be much more usable with today’s standard. I really hope that you like this video and please subscribe if you want to see more of them.
Thank you so much for watching!☺️

@@flyingtools Some refurbished BBS Alloys from the GTI would be a good addition to an awesome conversion... :)
Impressive as always and I did a quick browse of the City Stromer on the top gear link. I had no idea of its history being from the US. It must have been hard to find as not many were made.

lovely seeing it outside and moving by its own power again
You make it look so easy :) I’m tempted to do one restoration and conversion myself
Nice to see your nice progress! It drives smooth.🎉
As usual you are the early bird on our sunday mornings and again what a huge progress. Can't wait to see you driving in summer temperatures and see the consumption. And a unique car: an EV with a clutch
Great job as always.
GOOD JOB
Good job, Very nice! In the video you stated direct drive, this is not possible with a gear in the driveline. You will need “in wheel motors” for that.

Amazing build! Fun that you have the option to shift gears, even though its probably not necessary due to that instant torque. I might have forgotten this from a previous video, but do you use a vaccuum pump for the brake booster?

Hi! I have coil-overs on it now and yes it is to low in front. I will raise it up and adjust it when the car is all put together.
7:12 - I must have missed a video cause this car is now so much lower compared to the previous videos after the battery swap. The much lighter Li Ion chemistry replace the heavy lead acid batteries and that had raised the car a lot , but now the tires fit pretty good into the wheelhouse, especially in the front. Of cause an GTi acceleration capability deserves a gti look. Time must have flown by - learned driving on a Golf 2 so I still have warm feelings for the unique VW instrument cluster with these LED style lights in the middle. I always felt cominig home sitting in a GOLF, even nowadays in an e-GOLF get the same feeling even though a far more complex and modern interpretation. Golf has grown and become an adult, but I am not sure about GOLF VIII which looks like a missed opportunity, but the CEO already announced on the 50 years anniversay of the golf in austria a new GOLF generation coming - but electric only this time which means it will be a GOLF, not any ID crap nor e-GOLF , just an - then - ordinary GOLF - or the new normal as we tend to say here.

There is no, and has never been.
Is it in Sweden legal to make such modification and drive on the roads? In Germany it is not legal to modify even a E-Scooter, you have to get a permission by the state first and pay some money
