(Picture: Electric Classic Cars/Mercury PR)For real petrol heads, the problem with going electric has often been an unwillingness to give up on style and performance for environmental reasons. But for Richard Morgan, founder of the UK’s first classic car conversion company, Electric Classic Cars, there is no longer a reason to make that choice.
“People keep talking about the environmental benefits of EVs, and they’re great, of course. But really, when it comes to performance, handling, weight… everything’s better with electric cars now. I can’t see why classic car owners wouldn’t switch.”
