The electric classic Range Rovers by Lunaz will be offered in both ‘Town’ and ‘Country’ specification, the former focusing on rear-seat and driver comfort, and the latter geared towards offering a classic off-roading experience. Prices begin at £245,000 (Dh1.19 million) excluding local taxes. Image Credit: Supplied

Orders for these cars are already being taken from Lunaz’s existing client base and certain “influential” institutions in the world. Following demand for electrified Phantoms, Lunaz is also going to build Rolls-Royce Silver Clouds with an electric powertrain. Image Credit: Supplied

Lunaz says conversion to electric ensures these significant historic cars remain a relevant proposition even amidst changing sensibilities and legislative climates, particularly in major global cities. Image Credit: Supplied
