DeLorean Motor Company has shared the first official image of the reborn '80s icon.

DMC adds there will be a series of activations and events showcasing the long-awaited concept car, during which the official name will be finally revealed.

In addition, the automaker shared the first official image of the next-gen four-wheeler. The new teaser, which is a little better than the simple silhouette shared in February, showcases the left shoulder and back tail light of the successor. Penned by Italdesign, the modernized DeLorean takes cues from the retro DMC-12 that famously appeared as a two-door time machine in 1985’s. Like Marty McFly’s wedge-shaped vehicle of choice, the new EV features the original’s trademark gullwing doors and louvers. It also appears to sport the original model’s silver hue.There are certainly differences between the two, which the detail photo makes clear.

Of course, the biggest change is the new edition’s all-electric powertrain, which will be reportedly sourced from another company. CEO Joost de Vries previously shared that the setup will result in a solid 300-mile range. We suspect it’s also likely to deliver more grunt than the original’s 2.85 liter V-6, which produced a rather modest 130 hp and 160 ft lbs of torque. The new motor will also be whisper-quiet and produce zero carbon emissions.

Geneva motor show confirms return in 2023The Geneva show was the first to be cancelled with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, shutting down in 2020 just days before it was scheduled to open. Staging a 2021 Geneva auto show proved impossible as well. I wonder how many OEMs will return though? The more creative brands will have figured out how to achieve the same result for less coin by now.
