EV WORLD COMMENTATOR PERSPECTIVES [BLOGS]
pretty interesting read... was it a hoax or was Nikola just a super genius that was severely under appreciated in his time?
As the story goes, he had the gasoline engine removed and replaced with a 80kW electric motor. He then installed a mysterious "black box" from which rods protruded. Wires connected the box to the motor, providing it with enough electric power to achieves speeds of over 90 mph.
What was inside that box remains a mystery. It wasn't large enough to house the batteries of the time or a generator. It is presumed that it contained some type of circuitry that was able to tap into and dramatically amplify the energy that Tesla believed is all around us.
