Tesla-Powered 1972 Plymouth Satellite

This 1972 Plymouth Satellite, dubbed Project Electrolite, has undergone a major transformation with a Tesla Model S rear subframe. Powering this classic muscle car is an electric motor with approximately 600 hp, enabled by Ludicrous Mode. Built by Kevin Erickson, the project features a custom pushrod suspension with components residing in the trunk and a 100 kWh battery pack. Notable upgrades include an AlterKtion K member, custom Gerst front suspension, electric power steering, and Wilwood braking hardware enhanced with an electric vacuum pump.
