A website about the 1987 Corvette C4 that was converted to an EV by Motorola in 1994.
Welcome to the Electra Corvette website. Electra is a 1987 Corvette C4 which was purchased by Motorola in the 90's and converted into an EV. The car runs on 90's-era lead acid recreation batteries which drive a brushed DC engine called an EX-12 (one of only 3 ever created by Motorola).
I'm Idries, the current owner of the car, trying to restore it to fully working order.
That's a very short version of a much longer story, which has been covered in a lot of detail elsewhere. This website is focused on the technical details of the restoration project.
