The labour and parts involved in this makes it a non-starter. Not to mention the engineering involved to have kits for virtually every car out there.
Go ask your local mechanic how much they would have charge to rip out the entire drivetrain and fit in a custom built battery and motor kit. You'll quickly learn why nobody thinks this is a good idea for anything but very exotic cars.
