A surprisingly close race though, I'm quite interested in the electric one I have to admit.

As a hardtop, I reckon the electric would have won easily.
There's a YouTube channel called Rich Rebuilds; aside from the more outlandish stuff he does, there was a series on converting a BMW Mini to electric on the cheap. I reckon you could convert a defender to electric, not for cheap, but for significantly less than £100k. 2011 CSW XS 90 |

THat was a bit of fun! Awesome performance from them all. If only they weren't all so expensive!

Absolutely you could. The issue is range. Electric Classic Cars in Wales have one with a ~200kWh battery pack that gets around 200 miles. For reference, a Tesla Model X is ~95kWh and ~300 miles. |

Where is the Dodge Cummins Engine, Chevy Allison Transmission, and Ford Powerstroke rear end conversion fed with Cooking Oil?
