Soon you may be able to turn your non-electric vehicle into a hybrid simply by attaching an electric motor to your car's back wheels.
The new Poulsen Hybrid system, packaged in the form of a do-it-yourself kit, can convert any car into a hybrid by strapping two 7-horsepower electric motors to each of a vehicle's rear wheels.
The device can supply enough electricity to power 70% to 85% of normal driving, according to Paulsen. The conventional combustion engine helps with vehicle startup, acceleration, and hill driving.
The system works equally well with rear- or all-wheel drive vehicles, gasoline or diesel, the company says.
The Poulsen Hybrid system is expect to hit stores later this year. Find more information here.
