a waste of time and money??

Direct answer..... $0.00
Been there, done that. The SAAB C900 is too heavy. and unless you want to make it a 2 seater, you'll need the back seat and rear hatch to hold all the batteries. I'd spend the money on a Prius and work on "green-tuning" it. go to calcars. org ....a co-worker spent $9,000 to convert a Chevy S10 pickup to electric. His range on the truck was about 43 miles, before he had to recharge for 8 hours. the IC engine is still the best option until the fuel prices get to $6 per gallon.
