Also a light, efficient transaxle. Even the Geo Metro factory transaxle was too high in friction for his taste, so Worden chucked it and built something better. There may be other EV conversion business that went this far, but I don't know of any. That's what James Worden was all about. He obsessively tuned efficiency in his EVs. That's why he routinely won the Tour de Sol, and also part of why his cars were too expensive to ever sell well.
