1969 Volkswagen Beetle Type 1 - Electrified

1969 VW Beetle Electric Conversion | Oz Electric Vehicles Graham Manietta, from Oz Electric Vehicles walks us through the transformation of a 1969 Volkswagen Beetle into a practical, modern electric classic. Powered by a Hyper 9 motor with a 96V system and 750A controller, the Beetle delivers strong torque, an estimated 200 to 250km range, and the flexibility to cruise comfortably or climb steep hills. The conversion retains the original gearbox, adds strategically placed batteries, a dedicated cooling system and a convenient home-charging setup. The team has also refreshed key mechanical components, bringing the car up to roadworthy condition. The result? A classic Beetle with a new lease on life. No petrol, no exhaust fumes, less maintenance and a whole lot of electric character. Classic VW soul. Electric power. Built to keep driving for decades. ⚡🤘 Find out more at https://ozelectricvehicles.com.au
