EV HOT ROD
The global shift from internal combustion engine (ICE) cars to electric vehicles (EV) is moving quickly, and accelerating. This trend is being encouraged by international regulations, including an outright ban in sales of new ICE cars in Europe after 2030.
Countries such as Great Britain are already seeing annual sales of EV cars at over 15% of the total. Global leader Norway is selling over 50% “battery electric” EVs. Alternative electric technologies include hydrogen fuel stack electric vehicles, which also offer zero emission at the tailpipe. These require only limited battery capacity, being the energy is developed onboard, and not just stored.
As a car hobbyist, vintage automobile fan, and racing enthusiast, I wondered how the EV technology can translate into more adventurous designs. Yes, we have seen a few small manufacturers place EV drivetrains in various “restomod” cars, such as a vintage Porsche, Mustang, and even a Cobra? But can that vision go further?
My personal touch is a completely custom creation, inspired by the 1932 Ford. The interior and exterior has been conceived, modelled, and detailed to reflect the best of past and future, in a single compelling vehicle that emits, not fumes, but pure drama.
Alternatives to the Gasoline engines?
Alternatives are already being sought and the result of this is, among other solutions, electric motors.
This is something that can already be seen today.
We depend less and less on traditional engines, to start using alternatives.
My proposal is to use electric motors, turning old Hot Rods into futuristic machines.
This proposal was born from a hobby,
and partly inspired by existing designs,
where the classic is combined with Formula E technology.
I wanted to put my personal touch on a vehicle that closely resembles a 1932 Ford.
I hope you enjoy this creation.
