FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
We can convert most vehicles but you have to think about the costs associated with a conversion – even just the cost of a kit to convert could well be more than simply buying an electric car. So if you have that much loved classic tucked away and want a bit more fun and performance then we can certainly help you convert that.
There a multiple reasons for an EV Conversion on a classic. As a result, some of which are: improved performance, increased reliability and sustainabilty.
The cost of a conversion depends entirely on the range and perfomance you want out of the vehicle, a ballpark figure would be anywhere from £20,000 upwards.
There’s nothing more rewarding than getting salvaged vehicle parts and repurposing them in a conversion, especially a classic – this really is a true circular economy. Sometimes there is a requirement to use new parts and we have established a great supply chain for these.
