The Datsun 1500 Double Cabin is a legendary light-duty pickup, celebrated for its rugged reliability and practical double-cab design. Powered by a front-mounted, rear-wheel-drive 1.5L petrol engine, it served both commercial and family needs with a robust ~2,500 kg GVW. Now, you can redefine this classic for the modern era. Our complete Datsun 1500 electric conversion kit seamlessly replaces the combustion engine with a high-performance electric drivetrain. Experience instant torque, silent operation, zero emissions, and significantly lower running costs—all while preserving the truck’s iconic utility and character.

Choosing Your Setup: Key Considerations
Target Performance: Define your desired top speed and range.
Vehicle Layout: The Datsun’s front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout is ideal for this direct replacement setup.
System Compatibility: Consider motor power, cooling, battery voltage, and available space to select the optimal solution.
The intelligent core of your electric Datsun, this controller ensures optimal operation:
Precise Speed & Torque Control
Energy Efficiency Optimization for maximum range
Comprehensive Safety & Protection Functions
Seamless System Integration & Communication
Essential Function: Converts high-voltage (144V) battery power to a stable 12V supply.
Critical Role: Powers all standard vehicle accessories (lights, wipers, audio, gauges) after the original alternator is removed, ensuring full functionality of the truck’s 12V system.
A robust and efficient charger designed for reliable daily use:
Fast & Smart: 3.3kW output with intelligent microcomputer control for safe, optimized charging.
Built to Last: Features LLC resonance technology, active PFC (≥0.99), and full protection suite (over-voltage, short-circuit, overheating).
Key Specs: Wide input voltage (85-265Vac), high efficiency (≥93%), IP66 rating, CE certified.
In conventional fuel vehicles, the vacuum assisted brake pump uses the vacuum generated by the engine intake manifold to provide power.
In the process of changing from oil to electricity, the vehicle power system is changed from a fuel engine to an electric drive system, but the brake system still needs help to ensure that the driver can easily press the brake pedal. The vacuum assisted brake pump can maintain this assisted function.
Compatible with the original braking system
Oil to electric conversion kits usually want to use as much of the braking system components of the original vehicle as possible. As an important part of the original brake system, the vacuum booster brake pump can be well compatible with brake pipe, brake caliper and other components.
LiFePO4 Battery Pack:
The Power Core: Delivers quiet, smooth, and reliable energy for extended range.
Premium & Safe: Built with top-tier EVE brand LiFePO4 cells and an automotive-grade BMS with CAN BUS.
Standard Size: 810×385×355mm. Custom sizes available upon request.
Complete Wiring Harness:
The nervous system of your EV conversion, it ensures:
Reliable Power Distribution from battery to all components.
Accurate Signal Transmission for controls and sensors.
Enhanced Safety & Organization, preventing faults and simplifying installation with plug-and-play connectors.

Successful Conversion Cases We've Delivered for Our Clients：
This is the feedback from an Australian customer who has bought our 25KW 144V Motor Kit, he kept the orignal gearbox and drive shaft and rear axle,, and he only removed the original petrol engine and connect our motor with adaptive plate which was made locally, max speed up to 95kph.
Questions About Datsun 1500 Double Cabin Conversions
Yes, we provide all electronic parts for conversion. We also provide wire diagram system, each part user manual, so you will have no obstacles for installation and connection of the system.
Yes, we provide motor spline coupler and adapter plate to install motor to original transmisison. But the original transmission’s clutch need to get removed. If you want to keep clutch, you need modify the spline coupler to clutch a bit. Because we do not have car in hand, so we bought a old transmission without clutch to make the coupler and adapter kit.
We provide two years for battery, and one year warranty for other parts. We only use top grade quality products. If any parts failure from manufacturing issues, we provide repair parts for replacement.
If we have stocks ready to go, the lead time is one weeek after order confirmed. if we have no stocks, lead time might be 4 weeks after order confirmed.
After you have discussed with sales manager all details of the order, he or she will make proforma invoice with all details and bank accounts for payment, normally payment is through bank to bank T/T. Other payment ways are also flexible to accept after discussion.
We only use top brand of cells in China, like EVE, like Gotion etc, most of the case we use EVE brand pure new and A grade cells to make pack. And in our battery pack we surely use real automobile grade BMS, not simple protection board.
We care about reputation more than our customers!
We are real manufacturer, not sales trade office/company, we started our motor production from 1995 in China. In conversion we now have more than 10 year experiencee. In the whole drive systems, we do not produce all parts, but motor we make, controller we provide CAN BUS and technical requests to our partner, same as lithium battery pack and wire hanress of the system, the design and CAN BUS are from us. other accessories like gas peda, meter etc we get from reliable partners.
Except motor and drive train solution, we also owns our own low speed electric vehicle assembly factory, its website/brand is www.gmtlsv.com
In short, we are EV expert with decades experience in China!
Yes, our key electronic components are with CE certificate for Europe markets, so at the moment, we ship to Europe like France, UK, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Belgium, Turkey etc.
