# 80s-Inspired Electric Vehicles The Conceptual DeLorean E by Onkar H Imagines a Retro Future By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2021-12-20 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-e References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2021/12/19/delorean-e-mashes-up-past-with-the-future-as-a-cool-eye-candy-electric-vehicle/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=delorean-e-mashes-up-past-with-the-future-as-a-cool-eye-candy-electric-vehicle)  The DeLorean DMC-12 is an instantly recognizable vehicle from the 80s thanks large part to the Back to the Future more franchise, so the conceptual DeLorean E seen here is intended to help bring it into the modern era for fans to covet. Designed by Onkar H, the vehicle imagines what a present-day version of the car might look like and is paired with a total of four high-performance motors along with a mid-mounted battery pack. This gives the two-seater electric vehicle all the power it needs to gracefully glide along the roadway as it catches the attention of nearby onlookers. The conceptual DeLorean E is imagined with a rising windshield in place of the traditional gull wing doors on the DMC-12 to offer access for the driver and passenger. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 11% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Retro-futuristic Design Trend in EV:** Opportunity for car manufacturers, designers, and electric vehicle manufacturers to create EVs that combine nostalgia with futuristic technology. - **High-performance Motor Trend in EV:** Opportunity for electric vehicle manufacturers and motor companies to develop more powerful and efficient motors for electric vehicles. - **Innovative EV Door Design Trend:** Opportunity for car manufacturers and designers to experiment with unique door designs for electric vehicles that enhance functionality and aesthetics. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive Industry:** Potential opportunity for the automotive industry to leverage the retro-futuristic design trend and high-performance motor trend to produce more appealing and high-performing electric vehicles. - **Electric Vehicle Industry:** Opportunity for the electric vehicle industry to incorporate innovative door designs and retro-futuristic design trends to create more visually striking and functional electric vehicles. - **Motor Industry:** Opportunity for motor manufacturers to innovate and produce high-performance motors that meet the growing demand for powerful and efficient electric vehicle motors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retro Off-Road Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-concept.md) - [Retro-Futuristic Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-cyberpunk-concept.md) - [Electric Gull-Winged Door Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-alpha5.md) - [Movie-Inspired Gullwing EVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-motor-company.md) - [80s-Honoring Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modeljzd.md) - [Post-Apocalyptic Off-Road Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-omega-2040-concept.md) - [Electric Hot Rod Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-hot-rod.md) - [Modern Electrified Retro Automobiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/two8esl.md) - [80s-Inspired Experimental Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/favorit-ev.md)
