Want to electrify your Defender, but on a budget? Well, one UK firm has the answer for you ⚡️
The firm says the conversion, which can be undertaken on any pre-1998 Defender 90 or 110, is aimed at farm-working vehicles, with the batteries offering 100-plus miles of range on the road or “considerably more” off it, due to lower average speeds - although no official figures have been given.
It claims, following testing against a diesel Defender, that owners can save around £6000 annually in fuel costs. It also says that the kit has been designed to be maintenance-free, saving on running costs, and can “operate happily for decades”.Further costs are saved by the easy"drop-in" installation method and by bolting the motor onto the existing clutch bell housing, so the vehicle keeps all its gears. Four-wheel drive is also kept.
Towing gets a boost too from the electric motor’s “instant and abundant torque”, Electrogenic says, while dual-stage regenerative braking enables brake-free off-road descents. said: “Defenders fitted with our easy-to-install kits do everything required of them on the farm quietly and efficiently. They're always there ready for use. Just unplug and drive away; no more factoring in trips to the petrol station and instant heat on cold, frosty mornings.
"An electrified Defender can also represent one more step towards a farm achieving its sustainability goals.
