Electric Garden Tractor (EGT)- for a tractor, heavy batteries involved are a plus. A quiet utility machine may be made. First phase is a small tractor primarily for mowing and utility work. These are expensive off the shelf - $12k for the Electric Ox. If motors and controls are opensourced, the cost of producing a tractor similar to the Electric Ox could drop to the price of the materials - for flex fab product for DIY - or a reasonably priced good if fabricated is outsourced, and the tractor is offered for sale.
