Lunaz Design Cars

Electric Jaguar

From chairs to electric jets  electricity is on the fast track to power everything. But should it? 

I came across Lunaz Design in a press release, announcing what they’ve been doing for quite a while now, and some of it I applaud. Some of it I’m undecided about, but is messing around with old Jaguars and Aston DB6’s the right thing to do? The exhaust notes of certain cars are part of its signature, and desirability falls considerably if one can’t twist a key or hit a starter button, and hear the distinctive sound of an engine. Especially something vintage, something hallowed. 

Faster sprints have become a hallmark of electric vehicles. The thrill of straight line acceleration has become very competitive, with Tesla, Lucid and others, all vying for that coveted 0-60 crown. I’m sure an electrified Jaguar XK120 is faster than the original but is that the point? No, but something else is, and that’s because so many old cars are more than just old; they are crap. Falling apart relics from years ago, unable to keep up with traffic, unobtainable spare parts, constantly breaking down due to age. 

The cars produced from Lunaz Design are beautiful, virtually undetectable from the original, improved structurally from how it left the factory.

More than just electrification, Lunaz Design Cars go through a complete restoration process as part of the conversion. Donor cars are stripped down to bare metal as in a typical restoration, but now weight is taken into consideration, directing the electrification process, as well as suspension modifications necessary for the new powertrain.

Technically perfect exteriors thanks to 3D CAD models, the interior is addressed with the same eye for available materials to match almost any client request. The modern bonus of a literally new automobile is the installation of WiFi, a modern navigation system, and ultra high-end sound system.
