Electric DeLorean
« on: October 19, 2011, 10:06:54 AM »
I just heard on the news that the DeLorean Motor Company, the firm that bought the assets to the DeLorean car, announced that they would be producing an all-electric version of the vehicle to be introduced in 2013. I assume that it will be powered by a flux capacitor.   ;)
current bikes: 2018 16.6 kWh Zero S, 2011 Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Classic, 2009 BMW F650GS, 2007 BMW R1200R, 2005 Triumph T-100 Bonneville, 2002 Yamaha FZ1 and a 1978 Honda Kick 'N Go Senior.

Yeah...pretty cool...one of the founders of Aptera is doing the converson...Chris Anthony of Epic Boats and, interestingly, Flux Power batteries...

I think I have a facebook post that shows him with the Electric DeLorean from a few months ago...didn't know it was a more than one deal...thought it was just his own Delorean that he converted...

the two founders of Aptera...this photo from May of this year...

I don't think they will be mad about posting this photo since the "cat is out of the bag"...

Steve with his new Audi, Chris with his electric DeLorean...

Gavin


hopefully Steve doesn't unfriend me... :(

Photos of the car and some of its electrical guts can be found on the company's web site:
