Welcome back to the future! The future that was never promised, as the new DeLorean company says. What does that mean?
The company mentions that the DMC-12 should not be treated as the one and only DMC brand representative and their brand constantly evolves. A true icon should be reimagined and should allow new icons to come into existence.
"There was this enormous responsibility to make sure we honored the history of the DeLorean brand, but an even greater responsibility is curating its future... I think we did both with the Alpha5".
This is the core idea behind the new DeLorean Alpha5. The car which is designed in Italy by ItalDesign will have its public unveiling this August in Pebble Beach. However, today the company gave a long-awaited glimpse of what is coming soon.
The new all-electric car is a luxury sedan featuring gull-wing doors. It will have an estimated 0-60 mph acceleration in 2.99 seconds, top speed at 155mph, and a maximum driving range of 300km/h thanks to its 100kWh battery.
We hope to get more details and specs soon as well as a better explanation of what the name of the new car stands for. We will keep you updated.
