Nice job! Richard is on the ball with electric vehicle conversion of classic cars. It's great to see ECC diversifying into creating these new vehicles. Thanks for the collaboration. Subscribed.

In theory they could build an absolutely brand new defender from the Chinese kits sold online , the bodies are limitless ,broncos ,fjs, jeeps,scouts,, g wagons lol 😂

This is properly clever. Instead of reinventing every conversion from scratch, build one sorted platform and drop the classic body on top. Now I just want to see one being properly thrashed off-road… SO, Moggy, make it happen!

This is just awesome, dedicated skateboard platform for EV conversions. What Richard and his team at ECC are doing is just amazing. Can't wait to see future builds, and hopefully have their Defender conversion myself.<br>Great video Jerome keep it up, and hope to see you visit more European EV conversion companies.⚡⚡⚡🙏💪

With your new backbone chassis for a sports car have you considered an option for a Lotus Esprit series? A Tesla large drive unit in one of those would be awesome!
