Chinese demand for EVs soared throughout 2018, as the car-type gained more visibility among consumers, due in part to their promotion by local governments for their environmental impact. The dip in the Chinese market had ramifications upon the rest of the global market in 2018. Passenger electric cars recorded 1.26 million units.

Keeping the Y element would also avoid awkward conversions with McLaren or Audi if using the P1 or S1 name. Audi has been very protective of its naming system, last year forcing Chinese EV maker Nio to change the name of its ES6 and ES8 SUVs on the basis that they sounded too much like S6 and S8.

I remember having a conversation with an engineer at one of the major private Chinese companies, and he said, “We’re producing electric cars without the battery because the government is actually taking on the creation of the battery. We need standards and practices that speak to that circular economy—how do you design around reuse?

ECE hopes the glamorous image of these conversions will help raise the profile of electric driving. The vehicles were converting are expensive, at EUR109,000 for the Elise, car included and EUR75,000 for a Golf conversion, excluding the car.
