Classic and Electric Vehicles in Durham ensures that classic cars can still be driven in the future, counteracts climate change and helps the environment
Converting classic cars to run on modern electric batteries is a niche market, but only a few companies in the UK operate it.
One such company is Classic and Electric Vehicles in the city of Durham, run by George Kinghorn, whose goal is to get people to use electric cars.
Environmentally conscious motorists who are passionate about classic cars can now have a classic car that has been converted to modern electrical battery power with recycled Nissan Leaf components and so can be driven on the road in everyday life in the coming years in an environmentally friendly way at a price from around £ 20,000
Although the initial cost of moving to electric is high, the vehicles are far cheaper and easier to operate in terms of fuel and maintenance, but on a penny-per-mile basis they cost about a quarter of what you would get for a gasoline-powered vehicle. or a diesel car would pay.
Anyone who wants to own a classic car in the future has to drive electrically. By driving an electric vehicle you are helping to save the planet, of course they are emission free, and when there is a renewable source of energy for the electricity used for charging you are helping to fight climate change and the environment to help.
Electric car owners will also tell you that they are much more comfortable to drive, there are no chattering engines or jerky gear changes, they run quietly and smoothly, and offer a far more enjoyable overall driving experience, especially when they are sitting under the body of a beautiful old classic.
