The iconic vehicle made famous as the time machine Marty McFly used in the “Back to the Future” series is set to re-enter the marketplace as an all-electric version of its former self. “I’ve always had a soft spot for electric vehicles, and I knew the next thing I wanted to work with was the DeLorean,” CEO Stephen Wynne told AutoWeek. “After Tesla opened the door with their car, it got the fluids racing again, and I started thinking of doing it with the DeLorean.”

An all electric DeLorean would have helped Marty in Back to the Future 3. Doc could have just tied the Mr. Fusion into it. That would have made for a quick movie.

The final version is expected to have a maximum speed of 125 miles per hour

That's about 38 mph faster than it will ever need to go.

Flux Power out of San Francisco did something similar.

Flux powet?  As in the flux capacitor?
