The new DeLorean Alpha5 will be EV

The car company DMC decided to return the legendary car, but this time as EV. It is a modern Alpha5 model that still retains some features of the well-known design of its predecessor, the DMC-12, such as the door.

The car is painted in a combination of two colors, and the roof line is a reminder of the well-known model from the trilogy “Back to the Future”. It is equipped with thinner front and rear lights, a charging port located on the front left bumper, so there is no need to open the lid. There are also massive wheels.

Inside, the driver has at his disposal a touch screen, located on the center console, with all control buttons. There is also a complete digital cluster as well as a steering wheel with a flat bottom.

When it comes to powertrain, there is not much information. It is known to reach 62 mph in less than 4 seconds with a top speed of 150 mph (241 km / h). The engine is powered by a battery of over 100 kWh, which gives the car a range of more than 300 miles (483 km). All this comes as standard equipment.

The company announced that in the future we could expect a sports coupe with a V8 engine, an electric sedan and a hydrogen-powered SUV. Production of the Alpha5 will begin in 2024 and only 88 units will be produced.
