Default Electric Jag E type - potential for I6 replacement
Prince Harry's electric Jag seemed to draw much attention, and now will be a production model:

https://www.jaguar.com/about-jaguar/...type-zero.html

I wonder if in the future, an electric motor/lithium battery combo will exist that, like the Jag unit, neatly bolts into an engine bay to replace an I6 design. Even to the existing transmission. Can you think of any Australian cars with an I6 that could be replaced this way...

Has anyone on the forums tried anything like this?

I love it when they get an old car like this and put modern features in it.
Modern engine, suspension, brakes, AC, ect, but the old body is like a dream of mine.

Didn't Jag do this with another old classic several years ago except put the modern 5L V8 in it instead?
