Electrifying his classic 1967 split-screen Volkswagen Kombi "Lilly" cost Noah Wasmer about $70,000 and he doesn't regret one cent.
The tiny EV on the number plate is the only noticeable change on Lilly's glossy exterior, but inside, the Kombi has been cleverly transformed, right down to the power plug hidden under the fuel cap and the battery in the boot.
"We removed the petrol motor and we've put in a 50-kilowatt-hour battery with a 130-horsepower electric motor and so now she's ready for the next gen; she actually gets 250 kilometres of range," Mr Wasmer said.
