About us
Who are we?
Richard (aka Moggy) has classic car DNA flowing through him, having owned, restored and raced various classics since the age of 17. He has also worked in the energy efficiency industry for the past 20 years, helping some of the world’s largest organisations reduce their carbon emissions. Electric Classic Cars™ was born out of the passion for classic cars and the desire to make them more reliable and ecological to drive.
What do we do?
At Electric Classic Cars™ we are leading experts in electric conversions of classic cars from the ‘50s to early ‘80s. We’re enormously proud of our portfolio of iconic classic conversions, full restorations and dream builds, as well as the knowledge and experience we've built up in this new and exciting market.
If you need a standard EV conversion on your existing classic we provide the best service with attention to detail that is second to none. Our conversions are tailor-made to meet our customers’ requirements. We take time during the planning process to make sure that each build suits our client’s specifications and driving style. We work hard to leave the essence of your classic car untouched – but at the same time we bring it bang up to date with 21st century innovation giving you improved reliability and more power! With some older classics you’ll need a brake upgrade to cope with your improved power. We can add this into your build along with other modern enhancements such as electric heating, power steering, regenerative braking, upgraded suspension and more. We also offer some light restoration work, resprays and interiors.
We’re the pioneers of classic car electrification; steering the industry as the world’s market leader. At ECC we redefine classic car ownership, showing our customers that they can have it all; iconic character paired with reliability, sustainability, power, performance and no nasty tailpipe emissions. Our customers’ treasured heirlooms are brought up to speed with the latest in EV technology while losing none of their character. Our appeal is across the board with a customer base who are traditionalists, environmentalists and innovators. Whether we’re converting a rare classic or a modern icon we set the standard for quality, reliability and safety.
As the leading innovators in this niche market for many years we’ve gained a wealth of knowledge and IP. Built on our experience of converting the largest number of classic cars to electric in the work we have developed numerous bolt-in kits for many popular cars, including: Land Rover Defender; Classic Mini; Porsche 914; Porsche 911; Fiat 500; Ferrari Testarossa; VW Beetle and VW Camper.
