Electrogenic unveils its ‘plug and play’ conversion kit for the DeLorean DMC-12
Electrogenic, one of the UK’s leading EV conversion specialists, has unveiled a ‘plug and play’ conversion kit for the legendary DeLorean DMC-12. Famed for its role in the Back to the Future movies, this iconic car may not have ended up running on banana peels, but now it can run with zero emissions nonetheless.
The new DeLorean conversion by Electrogenic marks a significant addition to their lineup. The company already offers electric transformations of classics like the Land Rover Defender, Porsche 911, Mini, and Jaguar E-type. Recently, they even electrified Jason Momoa’s 1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom II.
Powered by Electrogenic’s proprietary EV powertrain technology, the DeLorean conversion boasts a 43kWh battery delivering 160kW of power and 310Nm of torque. This setup propels the car from 0 to 60mph in under 5 seconds. That’s a significant improvement over its original engine’s performance. No word yet on how quickly the conversion can hit 88mph…
The kit features regenerative braking and customisable drive profiles, catering to eco-conscious drivers and those seeking sporty dynamics. Additionally, it supports Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality, enabling users to power external devices on the go.
Electrogenic’s commitment to engineering excellence is underscored by its in-house development of software, PCBs, and vehicle management systems. These ensure seamless integration of cutting-edge components while preserving the DeLorean’s design and structural integrity.
This innovative conversion enhances the DeLorean’s performance, and truly brings this Hollywood favourite into the future.
