0-100mph

With a 65 Kwh Battery the traditionally light and agile E-type is able to go 230-280 miles off a single charge and with regenerative braking capability, the vehicle really shines in a urban environment. The electric motors smooth power and torque delivery offers an elegant driving experience.

The design of the battery and motor pack incorporated into an original E-type engine bay, enables full convertibility of the power train, back into an internal combustion engine. Therefore, not only retaining the cars originality by avoiding a refit and mechanical changes, it also offers true flexibility to the owner of the car and ensures that long into the future these cars can stay on the road.

Speed Comparison

The instant power delivery provided by the electric motors offers much faster launch speeds when compared to the 4.2 petrol engine, right from 0 seconds the acceleration is sharp and linear. We can also see from the graph that gearshifts present in the 4.2 petrol really hamper the 0 - 100 mph, whereas the electric motors consistently pull the car well beyond 100 mph. A truly remarkable performance upgrade compared to the petrol engine while also offering a much easier and smoother driving experience
