SERIES & DEFENDER


Conversion to an electric drivetrain transforms Land Rovers. It removes all the mechanical complexity, increases the capability but leaves all the charm.

A true 4WD that’ll get you out into the bush (or around town) using renewable energy.

OR NEW CAR

Either bring your own Land Rover, or we'll help you find one to buy. Older vehicles require more restoration but have more personality (and design flexibility). Newer vehicles can be equipped with more powerful electric drivetrains.

Every touchpoint refined. It’s still a classic Land Rover with visible bolts, rivets and clamps, but each element has been upgraded to improve safety, strength and feel.

EV POWERTRAIN

SPECIFICATIONS

Land Rovers from 1958 - 2015 look very similar and share a huge number of body panels. However there’s some key mechanical differences. In particular, the transition to coil springs in 1985 brought a redesigned chassis and much improved handling. This allows us to install much more powerful EV systems.

HOW IT WAS 
MEANT TO BE

We’re not trying to replicate an agricultural driving experience, we’re improving it. Keeping the styling and ‘feel’ of the original car, but making changes that take away the hard work, carbon emissions and headaches.

A VEHICLE
THAT BELONGS

Land Rover’s helped build our major infrastructure, they fought bushfires, they worked on farms, they deployed around the globe and they brought aid to remote communities.


They’re a part of the landscape and we remanufacture them into an electric vehicle that belongs.

HOLISTIC

IMPROVEMENTS

We don’t just make the Land Rovers go faster, we improve every aspect of the vehicle, upgrading braking, steering, suspension and handling. While also reducing noise, vibration and harshness.

A FULL CHARGE

Electric vehicles perform amazingly in stop start traffic and off road. Along with regenerative braking, comparatively excellent range is achievable. As standard, our Land Rover conversions include a 6.6kW single phase AC on board charger and a CCS2 DC fast charge socket.
