I looked seriously at making Krusty an E-car since I didn't have a motor.  
However, after looking at the current battery technology it just didn't sense.  
I just thought the treasure chest would be the perfect spot for the batteries.  
But at $4,500 for the conversion kit plus 12 $200 batteries and then only 
having a 50 to 75 mile range, I went back to an engine.

Maybe when the battery tecnology gets better.

Here's the link I was looking at.
