EV West 400 kw Electric Off Road Race Car [VIDEO]

This is the SRI EV1 by EV West, the same team who raced a 700 hp all electric 1995 BMW M3 at Pikes Peak last year.

The off road racer has a twin 9" DC motor setup, running 1000 amps to each motor via twin Evnetics Soliton 1 controllers, supplied by 138 LiFePO4 Lithium battery cells giving a total output of 540 hp.

This car will compete in the 2013 NORRA Mexican 1000.
