Unless there is a change in battery tech, I don't see this becoming a thing if you want any type of practical range. To run a couple of laps maybe, but as a DD there is no place to put the batteries that won't mess up the CG and/or eliminate all your storage space. It might be practical in a body on frame older car or a truck, since you could design and replace the sled, but doesn't seem practical in a unibody.

Battery packs in EVs are low for a reason.
