It is just my opinion, but I wouldn't give Zap a pass and just say, "Oh, it is the Chinese workmanship". Yes, we all know that there are issues with seams...
I'm with Norm on this one. I bought my Xebra so I could wrench on it, and I expected a lot of deficiencies as compared to a US consumer grade vehicle, but...
I agree whole heartedly. I really don't like to have to respond to the many, many inquires by giving them the whole spiel, only to have to add multiple caveats...
Based on what I've read of Zap's history, I have zero confidence in their ability or their willingness to produce a quality vehicle. The Xebra is poorly ...

... If someone has done a 94V conversion, I would also be interested in an answer to the question. However, I just added a Curtis 1221C controller to my 84V...
Tomorrow, Davis Electric Cars is going to take back the Xebra with the irregularities in the back shelf and back wall. ZAP is in the process of switching...
I've run more than 8- 12v -batteries: but had the added hassle of having to charge the added ones with separate chargers. You need one charger and battery...
