Can the original chassis and frame of a Land Rover handle an electric powertrain and battery pack without compromising structural integrity?

As explained above, contrary to popular belief, electric converted classic cars and Land Rovers don’t weigh very much more than the original vehicle. As most converted cars may be heavier by just the equivalent of one passenger. 

Chassis strength wise, Land Rovers are built strong, they’re military vehicles after all so are easily up to the challenge. In fact, the chassis of each Land Rover model will have a laden weight limit, which is how much weight you are safely allowed to transport both in the vehicle, and on a trailer – the weight of our electric conversions to Land Rovers are nothing close to these numbers, which are usually a couple of tonnes!

In terms of structural integrity, all of our conversions are bolt-in. You only lose structural integrity of a ladder chassis if you cut, drill or weld to it, something that we will never do, both from an engineering perspective, but also from a licencing and scrutineering perspective.
