Genovation Cars of Rockville, Maryland aims to give new life to pre-owned 2000-2004 Ford Focus sedans, wagons, and hatchbacks by doing away with their internal combustion power trains and replacing them with electric drive components.
The conversion, called the Genovation G1 costs $ 22,000 plus tax with the vehicle delivered five months after ordering. Customers can submit their own used Focus as long as it is in good condition and has never been in an accident. Otherwise, the company can provide a Focus base car for $ 6,000.
Genovation says that a future plug-in hybrid option will be available that adds a genset to the power plant. The company also says it will offer a four-seat G2 hatchback constructed of “green” composites and other renewable materials in 2011.
