The manufacturer has long beaten around the bush, but it is now imminent: a new model of electric DeLorean should be presented this year.
After dithering for years, DeLorean gives news of its next model, much to the delight of lovers of butterfly doors, pop culture and cult replicas. And according to Clubic, everything indicates that the new model of the real star of Back to the Future could be presented very soon!
This is the conclusion that is obvious from reading this tweet published recently by the DeLorean Motor Company. This contains a mysterious trailer of about fifteen seconds; you can see the characteristic doors that have made the brand famous, but it is careful not to reveal too much. For example, we don’t know if the body will indeed be made of stainless steel.
The future is all right
The manufacturer just recalls that it will be an electric vehicle. A transition that is obvious; after all, many observers now claim that electric cars are the future. What could be more natural for a vehicle that will forever remain inseparable from this term!
The presence of the hashtag #Luxury also suggests that it will be a very high-end model. Separately, TopGear spotted another version of the video, posted on the account of a prestigious Italian design firm. For the specialized media, this confirms that it would be a luxury model.
It remains to be seen what type of vehicle we will be dealing with. Will it be a new edition of the legendary DeLorean DMC-12? Or, on the contrary, will the firm try to emancipate itself from its status as a pop-culture icon with a brand new model? We can’t wait to find out, because the answer to this question may determine the brand’s philosophy and business model for years to come. And be careful not to be mistaken. After all, even if it means traveling through time at the wheel of a car, you might as well choose one that looks good !
