At a time when the world is increasingly embracing electrification, more and more classic cars are turning into electric ones. The Dutch company Voitures Extravert has unveiled the Quintessenza RS, based on the Porsche 911 Carrera RS from the mid-1970s.

Voitures Extravert, which specializes in electric car conversions, has equipped Quintessenza RS with larger contemporary brakes, improved suspension, Electronic Magnetic Control suspension, Fuchs rims, Carrera stickers and a distinctive ducktail. It is powered by an electric ssenza 700 engine with 308 hp (227 kW) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque.

“The original is definitely the best, but you don’t see them on the road today. The owners prefer to keep them in garages as valuable assets. That’s why we introduced the Quintessenza RS model,” said Martijn van Dijk, commercial director of Voitures.

It took several months for the car to be restored, which involved disassembling and reassembling the chassis. Car performance has not been announced.
