Revitalise your Ford Cortina with modern electric performance, combining efficiency and the timeless appeal of this classic sedan / estate.Converting a classic car to electric involves replacing the internal combustion engine with an electric motor and battery system. We carefully preserve the car’s original aesthetic and mechanical feel while integrating modern electric power. This includes custom-fitting the battery, installing a motor, adding controllers, and ensuring seamless operation with existing parts.
In many cases, a well-executed electric conversion can enhance the car’s value by making it more desirable and practical for daily use, especially as emissions regulations tighten. Our conversions are reversible if you ever wish to restore the car to its original condition, allowing flexibility in value preservation.
Conversion times can vary based on the make and model, the specific upgrades chosen, and our current project queue. On average, a full conversion can take anywhere from 2 to 6 months. We provide a timeline estimate and keep you informed at each stage of the process.
Range and performance depend on the type of battery and motor system installed. We typically aim for 100 to 200 miles per charge, with torque and acceleration greatly enhanced compared to the original engine. Our goal is to maintain the spirit of the classic vehicle while boosting efficiency and reliability.
Absolutely! Our conversions are designed to retain the car’s classic charm, with minimal changes to its appearance and handling. We respect the unique characteristics of each model and work to ensure that our modifications blend in seamlessly, preserving that authentic driving experience.
Conversion costs vary based on the model, the specific components used, and the level of customization. Most conversions start around £30,000 and can go up depending on the options chosen. We’re happy to provide a detailed quote after an initial consultation to discuss your preferences and goals.
Electric conversions tend to reduce maintenance needs, as there are fewer moving parts, no oil changes, and no exhaust system to worry about. We do recommend occasional check-ups for the battery and electrical components, but overall, electric classic cars are often easier and less expensive to maintain than their petrol counterparts.
Yes! We offer a range of options for batteries and motors to suit different preferences for power, range, and budget. Whether you’re looking for maximum range, high performance, or a balance between the two, we work closely with you to select the right components.
