Pietro Cambi is the president of the Eurozev, an association which promotes the conversion from endothermic engine to electric. He converted his own ‘cinquino’ to an electric car, manteining a lot of the original specs (like for example the clutch!)

There is a video on youtube when the cinquino hit the 100 Km/h (the endothermic cinquino was never that fast 🙂
This is pretty cool and I think the way to go.
