The AMP is not your normal conversion car. It has some power. It goes from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds. It runs like a beast. Accelerates and goes up to 90 MPH, roughly the speed of a Toyota Prius. It’s extremely sexy and yet affordable.

It is using Lithium Iron Phospate batteries. These cells are the safest lithium battery available and offer high rates of discharge and long life cycles. It’s roughly 95% energy efficient.

You do have to purchase the Saturn Sky first, but the conversion will only cost you around 25k dollars. This is an affordable option to the more popular and yet pricey Tesla.
