Everrati, the UK-based EV conversion specialist that\u2019s known for bringing cool classics back to life with an electric kick, unveiled its latest creation based on the iconic Mercedes-Benz SL \u201cPagoda\u201d from the 1950s and 1960s.<\/p>\n

Unveiled at the Fairmont Monte Carlo Hotel in Monaco, which is located right next to the famous Formula 1 Hairpin Curve where a Citroen Ami also happened to roll over a while back, Everrati\u2019s SL is described as being the new benchmark for understated sustainable luxury.<\/p>\n

Put on display in the hotel\u2019s lobby for this year\u2019s Monaco Yacht Show that runs between September 27 and 30, an event where the EV conversion specialist also brought a reimagined Land Rover Defender that fits inside a superyacht, the electrified SL bearing the factory codename W113 has been meticulously restored to Concours standards by Mercedes-Benz specialists Hilton & Moss, while the standard internal combustion powertrain has been replaced with an electric variant that was designed, developed, and manufactured in-house by Everrati.<\/p>\n

Finished in a shade of deep blue, the first of the \u201cPagoda\u201d EVs converted by the UK firm has a factory-fresh interior with leather-covered seats and a cleverly redesigned instrument cluster that retains the original look but has had its tachometer repurposed as a power meter.<\/p>\n

Revealed at the 1963 Geneva Motor Show, the original Mercedes-Benz SL \u201cPagoda\u201d replaced the iconic convertible variant of the 300 SL gullwing and got its nickname from the concave shape of the detachable hardtop. Powered by an inline-six gasoline engine that made anywhere between 148 horsepower and 168 hp, depending on the size of the engine.<\/p>\n

As far as the EV conversion is concerned, Everrati doesn\u2019t mention the power figure of its OEM-grade powertrain, but it should be more than what the car had originally, seeing how the company\u2019s other recreations such as the 964-gen Porsche 911 and 911 ST have well over 400 hp.<\/p>\n

Speaking about its latest model, Everrati co-founder and CEO Justin Lunny had this to say: \u201cThis meticulously restored and redefined car is the ultimate two-seater electric luxury grand tourer, a unique proposition which pays homage to the history of the legendary SL \u2018Pagoda\u2019, yet is fully future-proofed, enabling it to be enjoyed today – and in the hands of the next generation tomorrow. We are witnessing a revolution with surging demand for high-end sustainable vehicles which are zero-emission yet retain timeless design and iconic character.\u201d<\/p>\n
