IMO whether to convert a classic to EV depends on what made them a great classic (if indeed they were). So something like a Ferrari 512 would be sacrilege imo because the experience is all about that flat 12.
That's been my opinion for a while too. The twincam I6 in a Jag or Aston, or the big-block Mopar in an Interceptor is a major part of the appeal. Nobody ever bought a Mini or Minor because it has an A-series.
And EVs in general make more sense as small, low-powered cars rather than the £100k 2.5tonne behemoths.
Drivers in France will find that out soon enough. As well as imposing crippling taxes on ICE cars, Macron is also introducing a weight tax for EV's.
"Weight above half a tonne will be punished on a rising scale. Above two tonnes, the penalty will rise by €30 a kilo, adding about €1,200 to a Tesla X or €1,800 to a larger e-Mercedes SUV. That makes sense. Lithium, cobalt and steel do not grow on trees."
