BIZ Karts have re-developed the electronic systems for the EcoVolt. The modular design features a powerful, maintenance free, brushless motor combined with a compact, reliable controller and lightweight lithium-ion (LFP) battery. Electronic components have been carefully selected to represent the best available technology and put through rigorous testing cycles to ensure robustness. The result is a "plug and play" solution that is easily understood and maintained. All of this bolted to the same quality, symmetrical, twin-tube, high strength, hand welded chassis. The switch to electric has never been more simple.

Main features

• A British engineered permanent magnet AC Axial Flux motor. The motor is manufactured in the UK to an automotive standard and proved in automotive hybrid vehicle applications. It has a greater than 90% efficiency, and is a brushless and clean, no maintenance motor.
• British engineered motor controllers, proven in automotive applications, including Renault and Nissan electric and hybrid vehicles.
• A BIZ designed modular system integration for ease of use and plug and play functionality: Battery Module, Power Module, Motor Module.
• Solid State Relay technology for increased reliability of switching components.
• Innovative Intelligent Battery Management System with Active Balancing & Temperature Monitoring, extending run time, ensuring cell life.
• Simple on Kart custom engraved LED’s for diagnostics + PC Diagnostic Software.
• Electronic Anti Double Pedal control.
• Optional but recommended remote controlled 3 Speed + Emergency STOP system including the ability to set a Pit Lane Speed limit (another optional extra).
• Optional “Push to Pass” integrated steering wheel button (coming soon) will allowed increased speed or torque for limited time per lap similar to KERS/DRS F1 concept.
