Mother Earth News wrote about a home-built series hybrid built by David Arthur in 1980. This hybrid got ~ 80+ MPG. Mother Earth News currently offers a blueprint plan for this series-electric hybrid.

Generator powered electric car
by: Charles

Lynne,

Thank you for your response to my Generator powered electric car. I have found Honda makes a super quiet, super clean generator that if this worked, would be a great power source for this type of Hybrid. I also found that it would take several generators to do the trick............or one big one.

Simply looking for an electric conversion that will get a better range. 40 miles or so is not getting it.

Oh well. I'll win the lottery and by a Tesla.

Thanks!
Charles
