- Richard Morgan of Electric Classic Cars, last seen on Fully Charged when we test drove the lovely red VW Beetle electric conversion, has surpassed himself.
This is an amazing machine, slightly faster than the original 1979 Porsche 911 SC Targa and beautifully converted. With a 54kWh battery from a Tesla Roadster and two motors end-on-end, it's 0-60mph (0-97km/h) time has been improved by close to 1 second so "it's certainly got a little bit of spirit!".

As a petrolhead who hates the idea of not having a combustion engine. I love the idea of this
Mike Allberry then your not a petrolhead
From a guy who's had many v-8 engines, I like the way electric vehicles sound.
Noise is literally just wasted energy.
I like to look at antiques.
However, 21st century tech is the way to go.
We need these e cars to save the world from oil sheiks pliz
@@mulehedeogracious7419 E-cars will NOT save the world, lol. Mining the chemicals for their batteries and manufacturing E-cars is CRAZY harmful to the environment, they got shorter life-expectancies on road and are a lot hard, more expensive and environmentally damaging to recycle. Calculate ever car's entire carbon footprint from beginning to end, old 4x4s are better for our planet than E-cars. Easier to manufacture, longer working lives and much easier to recycle. If ONLY people bothered to properly inform themselves................. what will save the world is reducing the human population by four fifths. Everyday less people are dying and more are being born, THAT'S the real, inconvenient truth.
Firebrand I like what you're thinking... Mass genocide?
Wow forgetting about the electric conversion for the moment the restoration of the rest of the car is absolutely beautiful.
@Colin Gregson That is actually subject to opinion, you can't state it as a fact. I'm a designer and the design carries the soul for me just as much as the engine. It's true that revving an engine as you accelerate adds to the experience and I'm not saying I don't enjoy it, but to say the car is nothing without it is wrong. It's simply different and a lot of people like that. The electric sound when accelerating is subtler, but it gives a kick too. I'm not sure how they soundproof the cabin. I would perhaps add some sound channels to actually amplify it and maybe add some thrumming note. :)
@Colin Gregson Oh, so you believe combustion cars will still be a thing 20 years down the road? ICE engine has nowhere to evolve significantly, definitely not towords lower emissions, as evidenced by recent debacles. Yes, batteries are not ecological yet, electricity production isn't either. But they have unimaginable potential to evolve. Combustion engine is great, but it's efficiency is dismal and energy supply for it is fixed. With electrics we can theoretically get up to 80 percent overall efficiency and the energy can come from any number of generating sources. Including clean thermonuclear energy, if they ever get that one working. Oil is better used for other purposes of which there are literally thousands. And even if you burned it in an electric generator, it would be better than burning it in a car, because the heat which is an unwanted byproduct in a car engine, can be used for household heating. I understand you simply like the sound of a petrol car. But accept that in the future, you will probably drive an electric daily and use a veteran petrol car for joyriding. Don't look at electric cars as something that will always be as it is now. They're at the beginning of their modern evolotion.
@@Iguana93 - This type of engine sounds like an airplane taking off, and one can get quite used to it. I had an electric car with a German electric motor that ran quite well.
I liked, but I like more the conversion
Fog , yes stunning . that's craftsmanship for you . with car people like them we can have a future on this planet .
That feeling when you've already watched all interesting youtube videos but suddenly new cool content arrives
dream car. a 911 targa, and electrified. perfection. nothing i could ever afford on my lousy budget, but have loved this car for decades.
@8:49 I love the sound the electric engine in this fantastic car makes as it accelerates!! So futuristically cool!!! It almost sounds like the “Men In Black” cars from the movies!!
Love the conversion videos so much more than new car reviews. Also that interior is just gorgeous, I love that era of automotive design.
Thanks Henry for letting Richard let Robert show this beauty to us!
Fully Charged is the new Top Gear to me!
This puts the biggest smile on my face. An electric 911. Dream come true.

Been following your channel for a while, and honestly I would just like to say that this is, in my mind, pure production gold!
I could not imagine more of a treat. Thank you for sharing this Richard - From the other side of the pond!
The chemistry you guys have is ace!
The scenery is absolutely beautiful!
Breathing new life into a beautiful classic. I love it.
I love your show! Great episode, nice production quality. LOVE the Porsche, its beautiful.
I have a uncle in California with a 911 SC Targa that's older than this one. I love this car. I'm glad they didn't modify it more than they did. Thanks.
Thank you very much for the unit conversion:)
I actually love the sound - this needs to be enhanced, not hidden!
Beautiful car and an amazing conversion. I think it's a great combination of classic looks and modern technology.
Whoever restores an old 911 is doing the Lord's work
The production quality keeps getting better and better :) Nice work!
I want an electric DS. Oh, oui!
The Nintendo DS already *is* electric! ;)
Kniffel101 lmao
It's been done i've seen the video on you tube. That slippery shape works very well. Seen a Citroen H Van conversion too.
I've seen one once, a station model. Conversin cost abou 24 k€.
Gorazd Vahen Now we're talking "Back to the future 2" stuff! 😆
I want a hover board in the boot too! I think Peugeot are already working towards this, as they now come with an electric assisted scooter in the boot! 😎
"The customer is watching" awesome!
I do love it when Robert's obviously having so much fun in the videos,
i have had the privilege of driving a late 70s 911 back in the early 80s. the gear ratios were insane. so i appreciate the gear comments on the electro retro fit. i can't imagine a more satisfying and perhaps head banging job than retro fitting gas cars to electric. it's bonkers.
What an utterly brilliant car! I wish all sports cars sounded like that.
Sound like what ?
My new dream car. Ty for the video.
Watching that lead in with the 911 driving through the countryside gave me chills. That is the future. Wonderful vehicle, video. Thank you.
What a wonderful car and such a great quality conversion!
I love old cars and I love my environment.
And before someone starts to argue:
- common e-cars run climate-neutral after around 30.000km, petrol cars never.
- Rare metals used for engine and batteries are used for modern petrol engines too.
- Electricity used for a e-car can be
renewable energy (solar, wind or thermal), petrol needs to be drilled (or even worse fracked) from earth, transported by oil tankers and refined in factories AND still burns dirty.
That's where E-Conversions come in handy. It's Recycling+Style+Environmental. AND I LOVE IT!
simply: not the truth
This is the future..
Brilliant. Best way to re-purpose your 911. I sold my 1971 911 and now plan to make my 928 electric.....Richard is a nice bloke and I apologise for my lack of communications.
My GOD! Just came onto this video, it's really got me drooooling...what a beautiful car made extremely better! Love this video. Love this car!
What A Car. I love Porsche and I love EVs. So combination of both world is amazing. Robert thank you for that video, very well done.
Well, it's 2 years since you posted your comment. We have a Porsche electric car in the market today. It's called the Taycan.
Uss chefike erc iecsped dem cars
I want to thank you for giving the range in km as well as in miles, and i would reeeally like to see that electric Land Rover
Nice conversion and also nice to see a bit that's not just straight news etc, nice mixing it up, keep up the good work.
ripped its soul out!
Awesome.
Been a fan of 'modernized' classics for some time, bringing electrification to the modernization gets my man-juices erupting.
Beautiful. Top props!
Now to find the bug video which I've missed previously (I really love the classic Beatles, unlike classic Porkers).
Thank you Robert & Co. This is inspirational
Fantastic programme
A+ grade content. Subscribed
Great videography in this one
how to turn scrap to gold, the very best of recycle Bravo Chaps
Having owned both a '67 soft rear window Targa 912 and a '74 911 Targa, I would be over the moon to have the 912 short wheel base with middling electric performance and 250 range. That would be my happy place!

Love the look of that
11:30 "I CHANGED GEARS IN AN ELECTRIC CAR EHEEHGHFHEH" Best part
Fantastic I'd so love that car Richard has done a fab job more power to him and those like him I so hope more and more people convert cars to electric if you want noise get a recording of your favourite car and play it .great again Robert Thankyou
What a beautiful original machine, what a beautiful restoration/customization, what a beautiful work.
New episode!!😁
I love how the auto subtitles thought the acceleration noise was (music) haha it is an incredible sound.
What a beautiful car. Absolutely amazing!
Excellent idea. More of these please.
Cool car man, best of both worlds. Old Skool cool and an EV. Sweet.
Can't wait for the super capacitor revolution.
Or something................
15 years, 20 away?
@@savedfaves Super capacitors are in cars now!! the new lamborghini sian has one!!
Magnificent workmanship.
Wow that's amazing. Great video.
At 6:23 I believe this sound is because of a mobile phone someone has on. Try to avoid it in future
Great video as always, I want one!
Such a cool idea
It is a crap idea.
love to see recycling of old cars and being clean and gears im in love😍
You’ve achieved an amazing job, it’s an absolutely stunning restoration/ conversion.
dreamcar!
Some will consider this sacrilege, I think it's beautiful!
Thanks for the combersion to normal units!
AWESOME! Love to see projects like this
Excellent video production. I see you have upgraded your camera kit to really cinema levels of video and sound track. By golly I think you've done it!
Gangsta
Just very very good
Fucking the greatest ever
British engineering did it again. Oh baby baby it's sexy
this gave the porche a whole new life, the question is how much does it cost to make the conversion
JULIO ACOSTA OFFICIAL I'm sure it's a case of if you have to ask it's too much.
I know I could never afford this but I am still interested in the price.
I've looked at other companies before and it's not cheap for the conversion, think it's was about 15k, so alot dearer than any new petrol engine
You can contact them and ask! =P

James Macey ye but Nissan leaf or 911 know which way I would jump.
For all who is asking about the song played at the start and at the end, here it is: Paul Ressel - Snagged. It took me a lot of effort to find it but finally i did.
Oh gosh I have been looking for this answer for so long! You're amazing, thank you :)
That is really nice The clasic ignition Power and now Clasic en E-Power The perfection on Perfection
5:35 "EVOLVED" the key word here... Graphene batteries have been 3D printed at 10x the capacity of lithium batteries. TEN TIMES CAPACITY...
I will wait a few more year. Graphene will become the standard.
Serious Welly
You'll have to translate for those not from the UK :-)
Oh OK I'll do it.
Bloody Fast
IOW,
Serious Welly= Put The Hammer Down= ZOOOM
A wonderful, 21st. century second life for an old classic. I like it very much Robert. Keep on reviews llike that!
We Love the new episodes,once a week for fullycharged was to little keep up the good work
Wow what an excellent convesion job.
Did he mention weight of new vs old?
It must be incredibly satisfying to retrofit an electric drive train to a classic car that would otherwise be unloved. Fantastic job, Richard.
And I must say thank you Robert for your videos. In a world that's often very negative, they're something I look forward to watching. Electric cars aren't perfect, and they still have a way to go, but they give hope for the future.
Sweet!
// Talented craftsmanship.
Wow that's amazing! Looks fun to drive also
This is a brilliant idea, and may even be necessary in the future to keep classics on the road at all. I'd love to see (or rather, own) a 60s classic like an E-Type or Aston with electric drive. I doubt I could afford to even get an Allegro converted, but I can dream! :-)
I don't believe it is going to be necessary.
I'm interested in hearing more about the model S batteries going in the Range Rover.

So nice! What a beauty
Very nice video with some very beautiful landscape.
0:23 what beautiful music is this?
zaphod2 Idk
The way everything is going we are bound to see an official electric 911.
The first flight of the Wright brothers was less than the wing-span of a 747, and see how far and how quickly the technology evolved. We're in the infancy (once again) of electric transportation. It's always those with vision who are not limited by the "small minds" of the masses that help technologies improve. Bravo and nice job!
I had no idea anyone was doing this! I have been toying with the idea of converting my Defender and/or building/converting a (kit) car. Getting more inspired now!
I didn't think you could have ICE-like gears in an electric car, interesting!
I love watching these EV conversions done to classic cars with the swooping designs of old. Curious though about the difference in weight distribution of these conversions and how it affects the handling.
after watching their show Vintage Voltage it appears that Moggy and the crew try to retain the stock weight distribution or bias it towards the driven wheels
Thanks for replying. 10 months on, I’m still in awe and wishing I could have such a kit (talent and skill included) to restore any car in this manner.
i love this... I MEAN I LOVE THIS IDEA OF ELECTRIFYING A CLASSIC PORSCHE... AND I MEAN IT.
I absolutely love it. I want one.
Kryten, is that you???
And now lets see if Porsche can build one themselves... :-)
Taycan. Here it comes.
they will probably never build 911 electric because you will get a lot o angry people about destroying a legend
@@shadiandrew it'd be called the 912
I've often thought a good name for a Porsche EV would be the 230, except you'd have to market it as the 220 or 240 in some countries, and they'd have to make a special version for the US market called the 120
911-E
You just saw the next 100 years of car collecting alive and well
Beautiful job.
how much?
Robert: lowers window
Richard: "thanks Robert. We're going to have to cut the drive short now"
Thumbs up for the miles to kilometres conversion!
These guys are great together !!!! More like this
Another great video! Tell me, what's the point of an electric car with gears? That's not something I've heard of before.
You have more control over your efficient driving as you are better gearing the motor for the given situation instead of having a single gear fits all.
It's just simpler to mate the electric motor to the gearbox than take out the gearbox and find a way to graft the motor to the diff, hoping the gear ratio matches.
Don't, let's say, Tesla's have CVT or something though? It's truly just one ratio those things have?!
It's just much simpler. Tesla's gear down to like 9.75 to 1 I believe. With the tolerances needed in gearing that much torque it's just not attainable easily without just sticking with the manual drive.
It's simpler...besides I would only consider driving one with a manual transmission. I don't care about speed, just engagement
How much??
Superb car nice work by the company that built it .
The Porsche is absolutely stunning
