A New Eagle inverter helps Wisconsin Hybrid’s EV run efficiently and safely.

One of their most recent projects involves converting a 2009 Ford Escape into a two-mode electric vehicle capable of all-wheel drive operation for off-road driving and two-wheel drive operation that maximizes on-road efficiency.

New Eagle supplies key hardware components that help the team accomplish projects like this, and also serves as a financial supporter of the team.  We are proud to help Wisconsin Hybrid drive innovation in the EV field while furthering the education of young engineers.
