Electrogenic, the internationally renowned EV technology company, has revealed the latest model it has converted to a clean, effortless electric drive: the iconic DeLorean DMC-12.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Oxford, UK-based firm has developed an easy-to-install ‘plug and play’ EV conversion kit for the celebrated model \u2013 which famously starred in the Back to the Future<\/em> franchise. The exhaustively developed ‘drop-in’ package is now available via Electrogenic\u2019s carefully vetted global installer network, including numerous partners serving the United States. The DeLorean EV conversion package, which is entirely reversible, uses Electrogenic\u2019s proprietary, market-leading EV powertrain technology to revolutionize the DMC-12, transforming the driving experience with smooth, effortless electric performance.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Steve Drummond, Electrogenic CEO, said: “Since founding Electrogenic in 2018, we\u2019ve seen a great deal of interest from around the world in the prospect of a DeLorean EV conversion. With its sci-fi design \u2013 still jaw-dropping over 40 years on \u2013 and underwhelming engine, it really is the perfect candidate for conversion to electric drive. We\u2019re now delighted to reveal our \u2018plug and play\u2019 conversion package to the world. Developed entirely in-house using our proprietary technology, it gives the DMC-12 the sporting performance its futuristic shape always deserved.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The DeLorean package is the latest addition to Electrogenic\u2019s rapidly growing range of ‘plug and play’ EV conversion kits, which already includes options for the Land Rover Defender, Jaguar E-type, classic Mini, and Porsche 911. The company is also known for its bespoke conversions. Recent projects include a 1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom II electrified for Hollywood star Jason Momoa.<\/p>\n

Electrogenic, known for its sympathetic EV conversions, has now transformed the DMC-12, giving it the effortless, state-of-the-art powertrain the stunning shape always deserved. Envisaged from the outset to be a sustainable sports car, thanks to Electrogenic\u2019s \u2018drop-in\u2019 EV conversion kit, the DMC-12 can now fully deliver on that brief. The electrified DMC-12 emits no tailpipe emissions and is future-proofed for an age of low-carbon motoring.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Electrogenic\u2019s team of engineers, programmers, and fabricators have carefully engineered an electric powertrain solution to fit within the existing architecture of the car, using CAD modeling and clever packaging to maximize the available space. Designed from the outset to be straightforward to install, the genuinely \u2018plug-and-play\u2019 DeLorean conversion features 43kWh of brand-new OEM-grade batteries fitted in place of the fuel tank under the front luggage compartment, and above the motor in the rear.\u00a0 The design uses the company\u2019s proprietary, ultra-efficient, battery packaging system to deliver unrivaled energy density. As with all Electrogenic conversions, the original structure of the car is entirely preserved; nothing is cut, and all the modifications are entirely reversible.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The batteries feed a motor sending 160kW of power and 310Nm of torque into a fixed ratio gearbox and transaxle, delivering 3,200Nm to the rear wheels. \u00a0The conversion can be applied to both manual and automatic DMC-12s. Thanks to the enhanced power and instant torque, the electrified DMC-12 \u2013 which weighs only 40kg more than the original ICE version – is transformed from a cruiser into a sports car. The new powertrain halves the 0-60mph time; the original 130hp V6 powered car completed the acceleration benchmark in just over 10 seconds, while the EV version takes just under 5. With ample reserves of instant power at any speed, the DMC-12 delivers a well-judged satisfyingly muscular performance. Regenerative braking \u2013 which can be adjusted depending on an owner\u2019s preferences – helps keep the new-found performance in check.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Electrogenic engineers have also dialed configurability into the driving experience with a series of selectable drive profiles to suit different scenarios, from a range-enhancing \u2018Eco\u2019 mode to a sharpened \u2018Sport\u2019 setting for maximum performance. The DMC-12 kit also features launch control \u2013 a first for an Electrogenic conversion \u2013 giving you the edge in the traffic light grand prix. The conversion delivers 150+ miles of range in real-world driving and CCS rapid charge in an hour. The DeLorean, as with all Electrogenic EV conversions, is also capable of V2L, supplying 3kW of 240V AC power \u2013 so you can charge a laptop, power a fridge, or even charge another car, on the go.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The first customer DMC-12 is fitted with a number of bespoke features, including Apple Car Play, enhanced Air Conditioning, and a bespoke virtual dashboard \u2013 displaying drive modes, battery usage, and charge status.<\/p>\n

Drummond adds: “We\u2019re delighted with the results of our \u2018plug and play\u2019 DeLorean EV conversion package; it transforms the DMC-12 from an American cruiser into a true sports car, with performance that perfectly matches its timeless space-age visuals. When John DeLorean set out to make the DMC-12 over forty years ago, he was determined to create a sports car that was sustainable and would stand the test of time. An EV conversion therefore makes total sense and feels in keeping with the ethos of the original project. I can also attest that the car\u2019s original, Lotus-engineered, suspension is more than up to the task of handling the new-found torque; the car is fabulous to drive.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“During the DeLorean\u2019s road testing and calibration programme for over the past few months, our engineering team has been blown away by the response it gets from the public; it generates interest and excitement like nothing else. You\u2019re constantly being stopped by DeLorean fans asking for pictures or wanting to take a closer look at the car. <\/em><\/p>\n

“It\u2019s clear to see that the DMC-12 holds a special place in the hearts of many. We hope that, through our EV conversion kit \u2013 available now via our global network of partners \u2013 we\u2019ll be able to help preserve this true cultural icon for future generations to enjoy.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Electrogenic\u2019s conversions \u2013 whether bespoke projects or its award-winning range of \u2018drop-in\u2019 kits – feature the firm\u2019s sector-leading, proprietary EV technology, which has underpinned the company\u2019s rapid rise and sustained growth in recent years. All Electrogenic conversions are defined by their quality and depth of engineering, using technology developed in-house by a research and development team comprising leading automotive engineers, programmers, and electrical experts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Each conversion reflects Electrogenic\u2019s approach of developing and manufacturing its own technology, which includes in-house designed software, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and digital dashboards, as well as vehicle management technology that can integrate any of the latest motors, battery modules, to incorporate the best new tech into its conversion packages. The conversions use highly innovative mechanical componentry, including a unique system for creating high-density battery packs, as well as exceptionally compact in-line and transverse reduction transmission systems, all manufactured in the UK. The cleverly packaged conversions always ensure that the original vehicles\u2019 existing structure and architecture are preserved. This approach ensures that all Electrogenic conversions are entirely reversible.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Electrogenic\u2019s world-leading bespoke conversions are completed at its Oxford HQ and workshop, while the \u2018drop-in\u2019 kit range is offered internationally through a rapidly growing network of partner installers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
