Over there Jaguar E-Type comes back to life thanks to the works of Rest mode by ECD Automotive Design. Enzo Ferrari had called it “the most beautiful car in history”, after more than 60 years the record is still unbeaten.
Not a simple restoration, but a modernization work that allows the customer to freely customize almost every aspect of the car. From the interior to the… drivetrain. If the customer wishes, he can convert the Jaguar E-Type into an electric car with a drivetrain borrowed from Tesla.
Over there Jaguar E-Type goes electricthanks to Tesla’s powertrain. ECD Automotive offers complete freedom of customization.
An original and well-maintained E-Type costs more than € 300,000. ECD Automotive Design can purchase one for its customers. Then you need to add the restoration and modification works. The company claims to still be able to offer the restored car at a starting price of $299,000. A lot, but not a lot when we consider that comparable restomod works can assume seven-digit numbers.
Customers can choose from three engines: the original V6 or V12, or a modern LT1 V8 or, as mentioned, a conversion to electric using parts borrowed from a Tesla. The latter option offers 450CV power and a range of 320 km on a single charge.
