AC Propulsion converts stock Scion xB into fully electric “eBox” car
Filed under: Transportation
Ever since we saw “Who Killed the Electric Car?” we’ve wondered when even more companies would get inspired to bring back this fantastic ride. Enter AC Propulsion, a California-based company that just debuted its eBox, a converted Toyota Scion xB with an electric engine. After you bring your own Scion, AC Propulsion will do the deed for $55,000. So what’re the specs on the eBox? We’re glad you asked: 180 mile range, top speed of 95 mph, and you can get a full charge in five hours right from your garage’s wall outlet. Sure, that sounds like a lot for a car that’s ordinarily pretty freakin’ cheap (~ $18,000), but when you think that you’ll never have to buy gas again over the life of the car, it just might be worth it.
