why is it preferred to do an EV conversion on a car that was originally a manual transmission?

235 views

I’ve seen this mentioned, but I don’t think I’ve heard a proper explanation. Are there some expected complications with integrating an automatic that should be avoided? I’ve never driven a manual car so if I’m gonna buy a car to convert it’d probably be my first manual drive vehicle.

ICE cars have access to several forms of energy transmission from the engine, including hydraulic pressure, air pressure, and vacuum power, all produced by gasoline engines as part of their function. Electric motors don’t produce any of these so an ideal EV conversion minimizes the number of systems that require these alternate forms of power.
