  • The Sickness

    When I look at Tesla Motors‘ electric sports car, I can’t help but think: How do I transplant the engine into a Vanagon?

    The Tesla’s watermelon-sized engine is a 70-pound job that can outperform a Ferrari. It’s got two gears. It’s a rear-drive, rear-engine setup. For four-wheel drive, perhaps just add another engine, right? It’s all computer controlled anyway.

    If there were a reliable retrofit kit, I’d drop my savings and drive a plug-in Vanagon.
