To NOVA viewers, about our plug-in services

imageNOVA’s “Big Energy Gamble” is now in reruns, which features LG performing plug-in conversions (end of Chapter 5, beginning of Chapter 6).  It’s a flattering segment which has inspired many viewers to convert their cars. 

Some necessary clarification:

Besides conventional repair services on hybrid cars (99% of our business) Luscious Garage currently provides plug-in conversions ONLY for the Toyota Prius, model years 2004-2009, and ONLY the system from Plug-In Conversions Corporation.  We no longer offer the system in the footage (circa April 2008).

If you would like to schedule a conversion, the first step is a down payment of $12,000 (our cost for the kit).  Lead time is 3 weeks for system delivery.  Once we receive the down payment we can place the order to the manufacturer (Plug-In Conversions Corporation), get a firm ETA on the system, and schedule the conversion.

For more information, check out the following blog:

NO OTHER CONVERSIONS ARE AVAILABLE FROM LUSCIOUS GARAGE.

I do look forward to converting the 2010 Prius sometime in the future.  If you want to voice your own interest in such a system, I suggest contacting our supplier directly:

If you are interested in converting another car (anything but the second generation Prius), the best first step is to find your local chapter of the Electric Auto Association and attend a meeting.  Ground up EV conversions are serious technical and financial endeavors beyond the scope of Luscious Garage.

Thanks to all for their kind words and enthusiasm.
