'In WA's Great Southern region, a dusty Suzuki Jimny is in pieces inside an
Albany garage.
George Knowlden, 28, works as a software developer by day and is in the process
of converting the four-wheel-drive into an electric vehicle (EV).
This isn't Mr Knowlden's first electrical installation.
"I made an electric bike for my partner a couple of years before and that was
really fun," he said.
"It was a nice way to get around town easily and quickly without burning any
fossil fuels. So I thought, maybe it's time to graduate from bicycle to car."
Mr Knowlden is teaching himself how to do the conversion, using knowledge
gained from his electrical engineering degree.
"I've used some electronic skills, but nothing that somebody who wasn't curious
enough couldn't find online. I think anyone could do this," he said.
"They'd have to really want to do it though."'
