The classic MGB Roadster has been reborn with a modern electric powertrain developed from Formula E racing cars.
RBW EV Classic Cars have combined the familiar British Motor Heritage bodyshell with a powertrain created by Continental Engineering Services and Zytek Automotive.
With six batteries under the bonnet and a rear mounted motor, the RBW EV Roadster is good for 80mph, 0-60mph in 9 seconds and has a claimed 160 miles range, but which can be further extended.
Soft and hard tops are available and the concept is intended to be applied to other British classics if owners wish.
