Race team that worked on Ford GT40 creates electric Mustang

The U.K.’s Alan Mann Racing, an organization that focuses on servicing and maintenance for traditional road and race cars, particularly Fords, has expanded its operations with an electrical conversion for the unique Ford Mustang.

Alan Mann Racing, or AMR for brief, started off life within the Nineteen Sixties as a British race team that fielded Fords in various events, including the Monte Carlo Rally, Tour de France Automobile, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Crucially, the team helped developed a light-weight body for the GT40, with two examples built and raced within the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, though each ended up retiring. Ford celebrated the partnership last yr with a special version of its modern GT supercar.

Company founder Alan Mann switched his focus to the aviation industry after Ford ended its European racing campaign within the Seventies, with the race team largely mothballed until it was revived in 2004 for historic racing. Today, AMR is run by Mann’s sons, Tom and Henry, and their electric Mustang, often called the ePower Mustang, is just the primary in a series of bespoke projects often called the Alan Mann Legacy collection.

To create the ePower Mustang, AMR uses an original Mustang because the donor. Interested buyers can supply their very own or have AMR source one. While many parts are retained and restored, including the body, a contemporary chassis is swapped in to support the brand new powertrain. Modern brakes are also added, in addition to a brake energy recovery system. In response to AMR, the entire process takes around 1,000 hours to finish, depending on the condition of the donor automobile.

The powertrain consists of a single motor that sends drive to the rear wheels via a Torsen limited-slip differential. The motor generates a peak 300 hp and can see the ePower Mustang hustle to 60 mph from rest in 5.2 seconds, and to a top speed of 97 mph. Battery capability hasn’t been mentioned but AMR said owners can expect a spread of 220 miles. Using DC fast charging at a maximum rate of 72 kw will see the battery charge from 20-80% in about 40 minutes, the corporate said.

The unique gas engine, transmission, and exhaust all add as much as about 630 kilos, and this roughly corresponds with the burden of the battery. Because of this, the ePower Mustang is somewhat heavier than an original Mustang, but not massively so, in line with AMR.

Pricing starts at 200,000 British kilos (roughly $242,200) but will vary depending on the chosen specification.

For buyers within the U.S., AMR is working with Hatboro, Pennsylvania-based Mann ePower Cars to handle conversions locally.
