It's a plug-and-play affair, but it's not cheap.
British EV conversion specialist Electrogenic has come up with a drop-in kit for a couple of classic Porsche 911 generations which bolts directly to the car's existing mounts, without needing to modify the chassis.911, and there's a choice of two electric motors.
The more powerful E62s kit raises the power figure to 322 hp and the torque output to 2,876 lb-ft , but Electrogenic says that this one"requires some careful thinking about suspension geometry and setup,” as the internal combustion engine variant of the 911 made a maximum of 250 hp, so it's quite a big upgrade, with the 0-60 mph sprint taking just 3.8 seconds.Other than that, however, the conversion kit seems to be very well thought out, with no other modifications required.
The kit adds about 220 pounds to a car that originally weighs around 2,865 lbs , which isn't ideal for driving dynamics, but on the upside, the roughly 40 kWh worth of battery in the frunk leads to a shift in the front-to-rear weight balance from 40:60 to 49:51. So nearly perfect in this regard.
