evMe is individually constructed and tested to our streamlined process:

Stage 1: Preparing the Car

Zoom

Before construction can begin, the car must first undergo removal of the combustion engine and all of its associated components. The car is also dismantled to a level that allows ease of access to the areas that will undergo modifications to suit the new electric vehicle infrastructure. The car is then modified with new compartments and mounting points. Changes to the console are also made including a modified instrument panel, gear selector unit and cut-off safety switch. The existing electrical and electronic system is prepared for integration to the new system.

Stage 2: Component Configuring and Bench Testing

Zoom

Whilst Stage 1 is in progress, the new components received from our suppliers are passed through an internal QA process before being assigned to the vehicle. Computerised components are then configured or programmed for their specific roles. The new low and high voltage electrical wiring networks, with their associated fuses, relays, switches, shielding and connectors are also constructed and checked.

Stage 3: The Engine Bay

A pre-fabricated engine cradle is fitted out with the new motor and controller, transmission, front battery pack, charger and various other power electronics. The completed assembly is then installed into the engine bay as a direct replacement of the legacy drive-train. Other items are also installed such as the vacuum-assisted brake pump and cabin climate control system.

Stage 4: Final Assembly Inspection and Road Testing

The vehicle computer system programming and testing is completed and a final inspection is undertaken. Batteries are cycled and electrically balanced and the vehicle is driven according to our test drive schedule. The car is then certified and is ready to go.
