Electric motors operate completely differently than internal combustion engines. It is impossible to "convert" an engine as you have asked for, but replacing the engine with an electric one shouldn't be too painful of a procedure however it will cost a good deal of money. Something else to consider is that you'll be changing the power output for the vehicle, and that may require different transmission ratios than what your vehicle came with. All in all, the price of the conversion is not outweighed by the benefeits of it.
What else can I help you with?
If you convert a gas car to electric how do you reprogram the computer that controlled the gas engine and its components?
The "...convert a gas car to electric..." implies removal of the gasoline engine and replacing it with an electric motor, creating an all electric car. If on the other hand you intend to keep the gasoline engine and use it when the batteries are low, then you will have created a hybrid gasoline-electric vehicle. With that qualification, and the assumption that you meant a full conversion from gasoline to electric, then the answer to your question is that IF the gasoline engine is removed from service, then the computer "that controlled the gas engine and its components" is no longer necessary and can be removed also. Also, the portion of your question relating to the gasoline engine computer suggests your thinking that it could be reprogrammed somehow to control the electric motor. Since that computer is designed for and is dedicated to the gasoline engine, it cannot be be reprogrammed and used to control the electric motor(s).
Can you convert a petrol jaguar engine to a diesel engine car?
No, you cannot convert a gasoline engine to a diesel engine.
What type of engine is in a Toyota Prius?
A hybrid petrol/gasoline and electric engine.
What material are hybrids made from?
a gasoline engine and a electric moter.
Does an electric car have an engine, and if so, how does it differ from a traditional gasoline-powered engine?
An electric car does not have a traditional engine like a gasoline-powered car. Instead, it has an electric motor that runs on electricity stored in a battery. This motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy to power the car, making it more environmentally friendly and efficient compared to a gasoline engine.
Can you convert a LP engine to a gasoline engine?
It should theoretically be possible. However, it would be easier and probably cheaper just to replace the engine with one designed for gasoline.
Is there an electric enigine powered Tahoe?
There is a Hybrid Tahoe. It's got a gasoline engine and an electric motor. As far as a Tahoe that doesn't have a gas engine...no.
Do electric cars have an engine, and if so, how does it differ from traditional gasoline engines?
Electric cars do not have a traditional internal combustion engine like gasoline cars. Instead, they have an electric motor powered by a battery. This motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy to drive the car, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly compared to gasoline engines.
Gasoline engine convert chemical energy into kinetic energy. true or false?
A gasoline engine converts chemical energy into mechanical energy.
What is the main difference between gasoline- powered and electric hybrid cars?
The main difference is in hybrid cars there are a small petrol engine and a electric motor. When the car is driving along at slower speeds the Electric motor is driving the car while the petrol engine recharges the battery but when the speed is greater the Engine And Electric Motor Drives The Car
What is the difference between hybrid cars and gasoline only cars?
A Hybrid car uses both electric motors and a gasoline engine. Some Hybrids use a very small gasoline engine to assist in charging the batteries that drive the electric motors. These cars often use breaking to charge the batteries as well
Why electric motor is greater?
it is because you will save money on energy expenses in comparison to a gasoline engine..
