Electric Delorean on The Way!

It looks like the DeLorean is making some headlines of late. Hot on the heels of the announcement of an auction of one of the Back to the Future model DeLoreans, that the old-is-new DeLorean Motor Company announced, on October 14th, 2011, that they were developing an electric DeLorean, one with greater performance than the anemic PRV V6 that puttered the old one around. The great folded stainless steel looks will be retained, however. I’m optimistic for this one, I wonder what pricing will be.

The above is a picture of the batteries and electric motor, in place of the old six cylinder.

The interior is modernized too, note the iPod dock and navigation system.
