We’ve seen a number of classic cars that have been converted to electric power before. Fellten itself already offers kits for three classic cars, the Porsche 911, the Classic Mini, and the . Unlike many conversions we’ve seen in the past though, Fellten isn’t just ripping out the engine and then dropping in some batteries and a motor though.As the resulting company of a merger between Zero EV and Jaunt Motors, Fellten has a lot of experience to work with. For example, Zero EV featured one of its kits on its YouTube channel around a year ago. Notably, it’s a complete kit that requires no modification to the 911 it’s made for. The whole thing is reversible.
Called the FL10-55e, the system “sports a drop-in 55kWh pack with CCS rapid charging, just like on our Porsche systems… The FL10-55e fits a wide range of larger vehicles, such as Jeep Wranglers, Land Rover Defenders, and Classic Broncos,” it said. Fretten says that it’ll release a comprehensive list of compatible vehicles early next year.
