Las Vegas, Nevada — Electrogenic, a leader in electric vehicle (EV) powertrain technology, has made waves at the 2024 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show, showcasing their latest advancements in EV integration technology. Electrogenic’s offerings cater to both classic car enthusiasts and the commercial market, expanding its reach through a new North American partner network. Their presence at SEMA reflects a growing demand for premium EV conversions and reinforces Electrogenic’s status as a forerunner in sustainable automotive innovation.

Electrogenic’s Complete EV Conversion Suite: Now Available for B2B Market
For the first time, Electrogenic’s specialized technology suite—including its Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) and proprietary electronics for vehicle control, energy management, and driver interfaces—is available to EV converters and manufacturers. This suite allows businesses to access Electrogenic’s technology individually, a move designed to empower EV specialists across the U.S. to create custom electric vehicles with ease and precision. According to Steve Drummond, CEO of Electrogenic, this move responds to the “rapid expansion” of the U.S. EV market, allowing automotive professionals to leverage the same “secret sauce” behind Electrogenic’s acclaimed drop-in EV conversion kits.

Show-Stopping Electric Jaguar E-Type Takes Center Stage
A star attraction at the Electrogenic booth (stand 24816 in the SEMA Future Tech Studio) is a meticulously electrified Jaguar E-type Roadster, converted by California-based partner InoKinetic. This stunning vehicle, retrofitted with one of Electrogenic’s advanced “drop-in” kits, exemplifies the company’s ability to combine cutting-edge EV performance with timeless design. Finished in opalescent silver blue, the E-type is equipped with a 43kW battery pack that enables over 150 miles of range, 160bhp (120kW), and an impressive 620Nm of torque, giving this British classic the ability to accelerate to 60 mph in under six seconds.

Electrogenic’s drop-in kits, which are easy to install and fully reversible, allow for iconic models like the E-type to maintain their original allure while offering enhanced drivability and reliability. These kits are available worldwide through a carefully selected network of partners, including a new addition in Canada, Hesp Originals, further expanding Electrogenic’s North American footprint.

Trusted by Jason Momoa and the British Army
Electrogenic’s bespoke conversions have attracted notable clientele, including Hollywood actor Jason Momoa, who selected Electrogenic to convert his 1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom II to electric power. This transformation was documented on Momoa’s TV series On The Roam and has since garnered significant attention in both automotive and environmental circles. Beyond high-profile individual clients, Electrogenic also collaborates with the British Ministry of Defence (MoD) on projects integrating EV powertrains into defense vehicles, reinforcing its commitment to both innovation and environmental responsibility.

Revolutionizing the EV Market with Drop-In Kits for Automotive Icons
Electrogenic’s award-winning drop-in kits cater to an array of classic vehicles, including the Land Rover Defender, Porsche 911, original Mini, and DeLorean DMC-12. The kits are designed to elevate usability and performance, combining Electrogenic’s state-of-the-art engineering with the versatility of classic cars. Available in three configurations for the E-type—the E43, E48, and E63—these kits offer varying power levels and battery capacities to suit different performance needs, with ranges of up to 200+ miles.

The engineering behind these kits is not just about performance; it’s also about preserving the integrity of these vehicles. By positioning the batteries low in the engine bay and rear of the car, the conversions maintain optimal weight distribution, which is essential for handling. The result is a vehicle that feels natural on the road, with a driving experience that is both exhilarating and environmentally conscious.

A Comprehensive EV Solution for the B2B Market
Drummond emphasizes that Electrogenic’s expansion into the North American market marks a new chapter for the company. Their proprietary technology suite, now available to the U.S. and Canadian B2B market, includes everything from Vehicle Control Units to advanced integration software. This development allows Electrogenic’s clients to use the same flexible, award-winning EV powertrain solutions that the company has perfected over years of bespoke conversions.

Future-Proofing the Classics, One EV Kit at a Time
The Jaguar E-type displayed at SEMA demonstrates how Electrogenic’s technology can transform a classic car into a vehicle that will continue to delight enthusiasts for generations. With features like configurable driving modes (Eco, Sport, and Traffic) and regenerative braking, the E-type is a shining example of how EV technology can future-proof beloved automotive icons without compromising their spirit.

As Electrogenic continues to build partnerships with North American installers, automotive specialists across the U.S. and Canada will have greater access to this transformative technology. By offering their sophisticated EV integration technology to other automotive businesses, Electrogenic is making it easier than ever for companies to electrify the vehicles of their dreams.

About Electrogenic at SEMA 2024
The 2024 SEMA Show, running from November 5–8 in Las Vegas, offers attendees a chance to explore Electrogenic’s full range of EV technology and experience the future of sustainable automotive performance. From the Jaguar E-type Roadster to the latest advancements in EV technology, Electrogenic is proving that classic cars can embrace modern performance and reliability, ensuring they remain timeless treasures on roads worldwide.
