Electric MGA conversion | Electrogenic

Electric MGA conversion.
We're back with our latest conversion - a beautiful 1960 MGA. The epitome of the British sports car and now fully electric. We've kept it classic with a gearbox for engaged driving and have loved test-driving it on the country lanes of Oxfordshire. Sadly we had to give it back to the owner but we filmed a quick walkaround before it left the workshop. Check out the video for a technical run down, a look under the bonnet and a perfect summer's day test-drive....

Three in one for me. I once owned a 1955 MGA in white, I owned a 1972 MGB in that same blue, and I WANT to convert one to electric. The sheer beauty of an MGA makes my heart skip a beat.

Absolutely on my conversion list. MGA, MGB, F100, Esprit and my current '87 W124 300e. Would love it if you can get these up on a lift to show us the underside. Well done guys.

Lovely! I wish I had more room in my garage.

How does a conversion like this affect the balance and handling? I'd presume with a change in weight distribution there's an impact or do you factor that in to your builds? Do you also have to modify the suspension?

I have a 1977 MGB and would love to convert it to EV

MiGosh Was about to ask if you could do my '94 W124 e320! A lot of us yanks LOVE our 'classics' over here; are you licensing anyone to expand this way?

[vinniemoore]

Great job. Do you do a DIY kit for MGA owners

[indunaross]

Christ that’s beautiful! Take my money… how much do I need to part to get/build something like this?

[TheElliott]

Assuming the car is pristine, what budget is needed for the conversion?

You chaps should be creating a amplified engine sound track to go with speed and gear change to accompany these cars
