The Little Car Company’s latest project takes an interwar icon and transforms it into an electric city car for the modern rake

, the Jr is a beautifully authentic recreation that somehow conveys the size and heft of the original, with the 4.5-litre engine swapped out and replaced by a 15kW electric motor.

This particular original car will also inspire the colour and trim of the first 99 Blower Jrs to come off The Little Car Company’s modest manufacturing facility at Bicester, Oxfordshire, from early in 2024. Hand-built, using materials and techniques derived from the original car, the EV rides on a painted steel frame, complete with leaf springs and friction dampers. The electric motor is mounted across the rear axle, with batteries and electronics concealed within a hidden undertray.
