Electric DeLorean DMC-12 comes Back to the Future in 2013

The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) is bringing back the DMC-12 known from the Back to the Future movies as an electric car. DMC is working with electric-car startup Epic EV to put an all-electric DMC-12 into production by 2013. I still love the design of the DeLorean DMC-12. I could imagine to put a DMC-12 with electric drive in my garage. DMC is still working on getting their DeLorean New-Build program off the ground. We reported about their plans to release new Delorean DMC-12 cars back in 2007 the first time. I hope the plans for the electric DeLorean will work out for 2013.
