RBW EV ROADSTER. THE CLASSIC LOOKING ALL-NEW ELECTRIC ROADSTER. New car news.

RBW EV Classic Cars has revealed their 1960’s MGB inspired Roadster – the RBW EV Roadster. This pre-production model is a fully electric vehicle and has its batteries tucked away under the front bonnet. The electric motor powers the rear wheels. In standard battery form, it will be able to travel up to 160 miles on a full charge.

Sat-nav and a large 7-inch multi-touchscreen brings this car cockpit into the modern era.

Our patented system (Patent p: 1906698.4) places the electric motor at the rear of the car and Hyperdrive Innovation’s lithium-ion battery technology under the bonnet, which gives perfectly balanced weight distribution. Not only does this give the driver much better handling of the car, retaining that sports car feel, but it also affords maximum battery volume to be housed.
The RBW system has been tested and has achieved European Regulation No 100 of the Economic Commission, which confirms RBW as a recognised automotive worldwide manufacturer. What is even more exciting for us is that the RBW System and architecture can be installed into other body shells such as Austin Healey, Jaguar E-Type, Mini, and many more. Each car can be built to the clients’ personal specification and requirements. The opportunities are endless and therefore safeguards the future of classic motoring.
Said Managing Director Peter Swain.

Production will start in early 2021 with prices starting from £90,000 plus taxes.
