I had no idea these existed. I did know of a guy who converted his Commodore to electric.

There used to be a battery converted VB/VC Commodore in the Birdwood motor museum going back 15 ish years ago

Not sure if it is still there, because that's how long since I've been there

The story does discuss Australia’s part in mining Cobalt. I for one am outraged. So outraged in fact, that I feel like writing a stern letter. All those “school excursions” to the cobalt mine.

now I can see Why

there 3 percent Cobalt in Telsa batteries

What is the #1 use of cobalt?



Is cobalt harmful to humans?

It can harm the eyes, skin, heart, and lungs. Exposure to cobalt may cause cancer. Workers may be harmed from exposure to cobalt and cobalt-containing products. The level of harm depends upon the dose, duration, and work being done

not very nice at all to anyone

I made the battery pack for the ECOmodore (and also the aXcess hybrid car)! That’s all a very long time ago! Both vehicles used much the same core design but looked very different.

Pretty sure it's still at Birdwood with the other concepts. I have seen it on most of our visits. It was living there before the rest of the concept display arrived.

Can confirm, it's been up there for years.

I remember there was a silver VS Commodore that was fitted out suuuper similar to that concept car at the National Museum of Australia years ago (no idea if it's still there), but for the life of me can't find any info on it.
