that charmed our own Angus MacKenzie ? Both of those were Electrogenic jobs, a restomod outfit out of the U.K. that started out doing bespoke EV conversions but soon moved to modular kits intended to be installed in all sorts of vehicles. Cool cars, like 964-and-earlier Porsche 911s, Issigonis Minis, and now, the notorious. This is probably a good thing; the French-Swedish six-banger wasn’t a terrible motor on paper , but the consensus is that the DMC-12 deserved a better lump out back.
What has Electrogenics fitted instead? A roughly 215-hp electric motor bolted onto a single-ratio transaxle. A 215-hp electric motor doesn’t sound like much, but American-spec DeLoreans wheezed out something like 130 hp on a good day. The e-motor also pumps out a modest but effective 228 lb-ft of torque, a fair bit more than the 153 lb-ft the PRV made. Since the Electrogenics conversion only adds 88 pounds performance improves significantly.
The converted DeLorean can also fast-charge “in an hour”—this is likely a 10–80 precent figure although it isn’t noted as such. Want to top off another EV at a car show? It also has 3-kW V2L capability, providing L2 charging capability .Costs aren't discussed in the Electrogenics materials, but given the kit's price in its E-Type application we don't imagine it'll be an inexpensive endeavor.
The kit's on sale now, and if you want one get ahold of the company. Electrogenics lists several U.S. partners as being able to handle the installation, including InoKinetic of Temecula, Calif. No EV conversion is cheap, but don't expect your silent, carbon-free DMC-12 to be even on the affordable end of that spectrum. Even so, what price, coolness?
