The growing market of vehicles on alternative energy sources and the desire of automakers to switch to the production of efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles lead to searching of various possibilities to make this desire coming true. In addition to designing and mass production of new electric cars the promising direction is converting combustion vehicles to electric. This article presents a review of international experience in the field of conversion of existing vehicles with internal combustion engines to electric vehicles and vehicles with hybrid powertrains.
