Default Chasis and Body designer required

HI guys,

I have just found this forum, andI must say it is a treasure chest of information.

My name is Muj and I live in London. I am currently working on a new design for an electric car which will allow uses to have a rangeof 1000+ miles. I would like to build my demo car, but I have know idea where or how to start. I mean, i know exactly how I would like to design of the car to look but i am not an engineer, I do not know how to build a chasis that would do the design justice.

Will someone please been kind enought o help point me in the right direction.

thank you

muj

Would have to have something like £100.000 to get even close. are you going to add solor to her, be very intrested to follow as im having an electric motor on mine and gives about 100bhp bursts or contuinus about 65bhp but it's the touque im after 350 nm torque this motor is 120kg alone then you add battries you could end up 500kg more on the car. weight and drag/co kill electric cars.
