Don't electric cars make a TON of torque? I would think someone could build a tough electric offroad vehicle, with the available torque from an electric motor it should wheel pretty good.

Yep..... for about 10 minutes. Not a good mix for trail riding. Can't really carry a jerry can of electricity.Originally Posted by Bob Barker
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

LOL, my kids had a Jeep Hurricane, that thing would get up and move. I used it haul bags of concrete when I did my fence. I put 4 bags plus me in that thing and it drove us around...but it only lasts about 30 minutes on a charge.

was it good on grass? I gonna need something like that for my kids next year. Hate cheap China made ones (only for pavement)...

Worked just fine on grass, sand, dirt, you name it. I did wrap the tires in duct tape for traction. It has enough torque that if you touch the pedal those tires spin.
For the cost, I would just buy a gas powered pocket quad. I wish I would have got one of those to start with...we sold the hurricane on CL for 100 bucks.

If you do an jntrnet search you will find a ton of ways to mod those things. Bigger batteries make them go quite a bit faster!
