- Matt has had bad luck with modified Deloreans. But when he was invited by DMC President Stephen Wynne to DMC headquarters in Houston, he couldn't resist. In addition to seeing the massive stockpile of Delorean parts, Matt gets to test their new prototype fully-electric Delorean.

Who's watching this in 2019 and wondering when this bad boy is coming out?
Vaporware.

I watched in December (possibly due to a new UA-cam algorithm).
Any news about?
it’s 2020 and they aren’t out 😢
69 likes, and I agree, when will this happen?
Erik Pukinskis still nothing :(

Gas? Where we're going we don't need gas! :D
they could've used that in 1885
Hitlers nightmare
Jahaha
Weighs 300lbs more... is that cause Matt's inside?
🤣👏
"It only has one moving part"
Really? That must be hard to steer.
Must be hard to push
Must be hard to get into.
I would like to have a gearbox for that extra speed.
@@TheRealFobican And range too.
I want one so bad. What's the price tag?
$95,000 dollars! Great Scott!!
+Pulsed101
serious? 95k? omg ...
+Pulsed101 Too bad DMC Texas completely stopped reporting on the progress they were making with this car. I think they might have given up with it. It's a real shame as I would have loved a DeLorean with the performance of a sports car.
+Pulse Still cheaper than a Tesla Model S.
***** too rich for my blood though.
the price would be okay, if a working Flux is installed :D
It's it Nuclear? NO no this suckers Eletrical!
actually, i never though about a nuclear deloran? in the engine bay may actually fit a small nuclear reactor
+amanoncrack xD
kino n
kilp
The Cynical Empanada you clearly have no idea how big reactors HAVE to be, do you?
Those sunglasses are pretty dope...if you live in 1997.
I’d rather where those instead
Uh oh! We got the fashion police here!
They are actually pretty neat. Very hypnotic
2001 maybe.. anyways whatever makes you feel comfortable that’s the way it goes without any hiccups or complex
1997 was just the other day…
"35 kW-h electric motor"? Do you mean 35 kW-h battery? Motors are measured in watts or horsepower, not watt-hours.
Guy just has no clue....sad
Teslas are rated in kw if I remember right
@@nubreed13 I think you mean Jigga-watts actually!
@@Hypercube9 exactly
@@nubreed13
That's still the battery rating, not the motor.
the newly built Deloreans are $62,000. We saw one down there and it was stunning, and it comes with many electronic updates that are used in the restoration of original cars.
you'd be amazed at how many of them there are. Those cars have an insane following. We asked for one from the DMC owners club when filming the pilot for "The Car Show" and eight of them showed up.
He seems so enthusiastic, really awesome listening to Stephen Wynne speak.
Wayne is all ears !!!!
Gas? Where we're going we don't need Gas!... love that quote
If you are driving a DeLorean that has been converted to electric you best have a Mr Fusion on the top of that.
And then you can basically refuel it with ANYTHING!
Even if it is only for display, after all it is the key to the future ;)
2019 and still dreaming with a electric Delorean..
I love all of these Delorean videos.
So wonderful that this one of a kind
Vehicle is brought back to life!
As it should! 👍
40 some years old and still looks better
Than most cars build today 🤤
I agree, some cars and trucks just got that look; I have a decent 88 pickup and I rather have that over what's new aside from my cruze. That's decent too. Everything else, meh.
They do. For $62,000 they will build you a brand new, zero mile Delorean from their parts inventory, which comes with some modern electronic/brake/suspension updates.
35KW is a long way short of 1.21 Jiggerwatts.
MyNameIsBucket And I'll come back and haunt you. Mwahahahaha... Boo!!!
What the hell is a gigaWhat? xD
The correct line was giga watts so 35,000 watts < 1,210,000 watts
That "reverse to grid", as they call it, is quite handy. When I converted my 63 Ford Econoline Van into a hybrid (because I'm a technophile, and no other reason) and gave it a power station so I could run my appliances while camping. Since I gave it 4x 30 amp 110v circuits, and 2 additional 30x120 linked to make a 60x240 (Arch welder, drier, just because) I was able to power my whole farm for three weeks when the power got wiped out a few years back.
Loving this new series of Tuned, 4 awesome videos this season already. Can not wait to see the videos from the East coast road trip
Shame it still doesn't sound as wicked as it does in the film, I bloody love that high pitched whine sound.
+Johny40Se7en They actually dubbed the engine sounds of a porsche over the cars actual noise in the film.
MrRibbotron What Porsche has that whine sound?
The whine was a seperate noise from the electrical parts of the time machine. The engine sound was from a porsche 928 V8
MrRibbotron ah right ok, ta.
Sure that there's some kind of techno gizmo that could make that cool sound for a real life Delorean, odd that no one's done that yet, especially this one, being electric.
One of the guys that worked on the movie said they used jet engine sound effects
Its 2015 I WANT MY DMC-12 ELECTRIC!
i think half a planet want it. I think the modern deloran dies with its warehouse full of part in 2013
Its 2020 and i want mine.
It's 2020 and they're still having trouble getting the permits to build new cars.
setting B2TF references aside..the delorean is such a cool car. turd and failure or not
the fact that someone bought the full stock of parts and devotes effort into keeping this dream alive is amazing and so awesome.
Mr. Wynne is truly living the dream. that car is so cool.
"Target price of about.. ninety five thousand...." *Closed tab*
It's a video from 2012, price of electric car technology has come down a lot.
autohmae true, but so far there hasn’t been any reports on Deloreans progress with the car for a few years now (I think)
Is that price because of the amount asked for the reminder of the cars in the warehouse too?
why isnt there 1.21 gigawatts of electric power? that would be cool.
The car wouldn't even start.
That amount of power can't be generated without a nuclear power plant charging station Which the new Iphone needs.
crazyslimdude6 🖕🏿
No battery and motor setup is that powerful. Even if it could actually output that kind of power, it would probably vaporize the tires almost instantly.
@@fancyman4006 wayne says yes it can be done
What's not to love? Everything but the looks.
One moving part ! wheels, brake caliper pistons, ball joints, track rods, door hinges , wipers, relay switches, brake and throttle pedals, instrument switches, mirrors, seat adjustment... its awesome, he got rid of everything and it now has one moving part, I hope it's the Ash Tray !
One moving part? So he got the 2015 hover conversion kit?
"A 35 kilowatt-hour electric motor" OMG YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP
+mikokuijn 35 kilowatt-hour....fack...is that not a measurement for battery size now?
+kevin tate kWh is a measure of energy (amount of joules) while W is a measure of power (how fast per unit of time joules are consumed)
A motor has power, not energy capacity so Watts are applicable.
Say your laptop battery has a *capacity* of 90 Wh and the laptop consumes 10W *power* constantly, you can divide and get a runtime of 9 hours.
mikokuijn No I get it, I just thought I was hearing the fellow weird
The fact that this is becoming reality after 10 years is so satisfying🤯
Can't believe this is from 2012 😳 Incredible !
We question that claim as well, he may have been referring to the spec of the production car once the new AC motor is installed.
why can't the engine generate 1.21 Jigawatts? :3
true
It can, it's just that when you convert that to actual watts it's not so impressive anymore...
What the hell is a Jigawatt?!
A bolt of lightning :3
And hybrids.
I love them even with all the quirks. My father had them but sold them before he passed so they are no longer in the family. I am one of the very few that is a DeLorean certified mechanic.
Great eps guys, I also would not mine seeing more Delorean on the road as well
These cars will still be driving around in 100 years. Why aren't all cars made of stainless steel so they don't rust?
it's softer also heavier
Sang3ETA the cost of materials would make the expensive to but.
Stainless can and will eventually rust.
Because the paint on cars stops them from rusting.
only the outer shell is stainless,
the chassis is normal steel and they rust like crazy,
never say a delorean doesn't rust because it does,
stainless is not softer its harder and also work hardens easy meaning it can crack easier,
it can work harden from flexing like a normal chassis/panel does,
depending on the grade,
also make conventional repairs almost impossible so its panel replacement,
306 stainless used to be 16% dearer when buying fasteners a few years back so its not that much dearer.
This is my favorite Delorean. All electric so it's eco-friendly.
Sorry to break it to you, but studies say that creating an electric car motor almost pollutes as much as a normal car does it's entire life span
@@janeskilholst6855 what we need a is a delorean that runs on water. No I don't mean steam. I mean one where it takes the hydrogen from water, runs on that and what gets spit out is oxygen.
@@TheCaptainSplatter would be cool, but yeah making the motor itself would be hard, like really hard
Where do you think most of that electricity comes from? Fossil fuels including the line losses from the power station.
Very nice video, great work Matt.
I don't like electric cars, but in a Delorean, it makes sense.
The NSX is a great platform that, when properly modified, is a hell of a track car. I realize my love for Deloreans isn't shared by most people, but everyone has a car that, silly or not, they just like for what it is.
guy needs to do a deal with tesla
whilst he bought the stock idk if he has the patents
@@ScottishRebel but could you imagine these with a nicer futuristic screen inside and electric motors! i wish i could afford to do it to a 69 charger.
the electric motor was messing with our sound equipment, no way around it.
Nostalgia is a powerful drug.
I really hope DMC makes a comeback as an electric car company
Good News The Delorean Is Coming Back As Electric Car
Who's watching this in 2021 wondering when this is coming out? Going to need a time machine to ever get one of these.
I'd take the DMC over the Model S because I'm the kind of guy who likes nostalgia.
for 3X the price?
I can't believe this still hasn't come out. Got to sit in the Back to the Future DeLorean last week and now it's all I want. I have a Tesla Model 3, but seriously wish it were an electric DeLorean.
I saw this video, and got really excited. Then I saw the date it was posted. Still, please make this real.
Simple solution to the "boring engine" problem with the DeLorean. Replace the stock engine with the engine from a Subaru Impreza WRX STi, probably the '04 or '05 model. I would love to see that.
a camry v6 or other similar v6's should get the job done without much convesion. remember that a boxer engine has a different shape than the generic v6
jago107 it would probably fit very nicely In that engine bay, the only issue would be directing air to the intercooler, nothing a functional roof mounted scoop at the rear window couldn’t fix
Can't someone just make a Supercharged, Twin Turbo charged, V8?
Darien Seminoff OR a twin turbo 4 rotor lol
MaggieWongg probably won't fit in the engine bay, someone put a corvette ls1 in it but I think that's the best we have so far
This is my fav video by Matt ever. It has all the car things I like.
because of the car's limited range and how many miles are required to film (usually 75-80) we couldn't go too far from DMC's headquarters in case we ran low on juice. Their headquarters is in a heavy traffic area, so that was the quietest streets we could find locally for filming. The downsides of electricity....
What about a cocaine powered DMC12? Sorry, couldn't resist
ok so are they for sale now? its comming up to 2020
No. Never will be.
@@DOSputin why, they say its 2021
24 hours of lemons shirt? Awesome. Easily the most fun ive had in a car.
Thank you for responding. I was aware that they do build "new" DMC-12's at a price roughly equal to what was asked in the 1980s. $25K really lost value in the last 30-some years. As I understand it, these "new" DMC-12's are built using the old parts, with the addition of some modern bits and conveniences but are fundamentally the exact same car sold "back in the day". I'm on about DMC making a ground up, all-new car, not just sprousing up the old one with a few "bits and bobs".
Are you telling me they made an electric car......out of a delorean!? *comedy drum fill*
fawkthescene666 dumb ass it's the new Delorean
The way I see it, if you're going to turn a car into an electric vehicle, why not do it with some style?
@@thatracinggtbmx6453 dumbass it's a movie quote.
It needs 1.21 gigawatts of power to make the car run!
Figures, the Delorean was ahead of it's time XD
Nice back to the future reference on the license plate
21.10.2015 :-)
12.02.2017 :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Just 13 grand?
wot
TheLawnWanderer extra 13 grand lol and 50 for the car
+Shane Culbertson Shame the battery is so small.
Eh, might get a Delorean and rebuild it myself, 18650s everwhere.
+TheLawnWanderer actually, delorean rebuild itself
That's indeed a good idea. The flat paneled surfaces of the Delorean should work well and the typical shimmering solar cells should make this an awesome sight.
Awesome. I had the privileged of driving a Delorean a few years back. The stock engine is pretty slow but it was still a blast to drive. Major head turner.
If you build a new daloreon from old stock parts from 1980's is it still considered a historical vehicle as the parts are over 25 years old lol?
It goes by when the vin is first registered. If the vins for the rest of the ones that aren't built where some how registered in 1980 which is illigal. It's a brand new 2000 something with 1980's parts. It's still a rich man's toy.
It depends. I believe if it has the original vin tags it's an original car. The parts are all originally from the 1980s
This suckers electric?
lol
thats the most scary part of the pleasure to drive a Delorean ;)
Cool Delorean. Also cool red T-Bird in the driveway.
So it only runs on 0.000.035 gigawatts...
LOL! 35kWh motor! XD That would be 35kWh battery pack
lol I noticed it straigth avay too :DDDD
I'm completely with you on that one. At least he focused on the history and car itself, without a 'Where's the Flux Capacitor?"
I FULLY SUPPORT THIS COMPANY
this guy doesn't seem to have a clue about electricity, or cars
Matt has been doing car stuff for a long time, but I think he must have learned what electricity is the same day they filmed this.
would rather buy one for like 4k and swap a powerful engine in and burn all those other cars at that place that they are selling way overpriced
Thing is that a delorean is a rare collectors car that people buy because they like it. Theres also only a handful of places in the world that can work on them. There was also a motor swap done on a delorean in another episode and it ran into problems.
MaxSonic I agree cause the deloreans have a back story when they first went into production for about 3 years, however its possible that they can be worked on for modifications like a different engine and more to it as well, but design wise I'd leave it the way it is due to its unique futuristic appearance.
JasN MoNey good luck finding one for 4k they start at like 20k
So true. Your comment was probably a bit premature 3 years ago, but these fuckers have ruined the market. They have totally overpriced these cars, and have bloated the price of spares significantly. Capitalism at its finest.
Автомобиль на все времена, дизайн и в будущем будет актуальным, спасибо создателям фильма)
An electric Delorean makes so much sense.
that is an excellent point.
2:56 "Lets go check check it out"....its so awesome it needs checking twice
If there was ever a car that should be electric, it's the Delorean.
It's 2021 and it's still "when we start production".
I don't know why, you'll have to ask them. But our videos offer lots of exposure for these tuning companies' products, and every company we've worked with has gotten real business because of it. If UGR isn't interested in that kind of exposure, I'm not going to force it down their throats when there are dozens of other tuning companies that would love to have us film. Heffner Performance gave us a TT Lambo and it was brilliant.
People have to thank Michael J Fox and back to the future for making this vehicle so iconic
this is the only electric car i'd love to own. this engine suits the car perfectly.
we're not filming anything from underground, so you guys need to stop asking.
The coolest golf cart ever!
You know, watching these sessions makes me want to buy a DeLorean.
"Reverse to grid"? Now the electric Delorean is my post-apocalypic vehicle of choice!
This would be a neat way for the Delorean or new Deloreans to head into the future.
+J G I agree! The entire design seems like it should be electric for some reason. The reason I'm here is because I was wondering if anyone did an electric version. I've always loved the timeless design and an electric configuration seems like a natural evolution.
The marketing will be simple because people view Deloreans as a future car (Flux Capacitor). They should really spend the money and develop a powerful and efficient electric architecture.
They are too focused on keeping it pure. The changes would be great for this car. They should update the interior as well.
These guys have a beast on their hands but still holding on to what it was.
because deloreans have a massive following, and some people will want a unique powertrain.
open fields, cookie cutter houses, and power lines. Had a feeling that was Houston!
He got his unicorn. Good job Matt
I love the LS-1 Delorean......my favorite!
So many quotes in my head right now.
Electric power train fits so well on these cars theme.
The part with the brillo pad was probably the most interesting bit of the video, should have included that in the main part
still one of the best looking car even till this day
When there are literally 10 of them left in the world from the original stock (vs 1,000 or so right ones) it's supply vs. demand.
everyone we met down there was very nice.
We get it, a Volt is more practical than a Delorean. What a brilliant observation.
I'm glad you finally found your Delorean Matt! I drove the Stage 3 car in Orlando a few months ago and it was a blast!! Nice job on the video.
