Eco Factor: Teenager converts Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck to run on electric batteries.
At the age of 16, when most of us are just learning to drive a car, Deitrich Ludwig from Monclova, Ohio has become the youngest person on the planet to build a 2000 Chevrolet S-10 pickup electric truck, setting a new world record for the youngest person to have built an electric truck.
The truck has been built by replacing the gas-guzzling engine with a 100 percent emission-free electric drive train. The young creator removed the four-cylinder engine, radiator and exhaust system and installed a DC electric motor, control system, battery charger and a bank of batteries.
After a successful first ride, the creator now wants to reduce the charging times and improve the vehicle’s performance.
