The iconic boxy classic returns, reclaiming its crown, now as an electric legend.
ALT: A Global Legend Reborn Electric in 2025
Today – Los Angeles, Calif. – Zero Labs Automotive (http://www.zerolabs.com), known for transforming iconic classic vehicles into premium electric models, proudly introduces a completely reimagined 5-door Electric Land Rover Series 109. With nearly 4,000 proprietary design upgrades, this latest offering integrates Zero Labs' Generation 4 classic electric platform, delivering a seamless blend of modern performance and timeless design.
Over the past five years, Zero Labs has made headlines by reengineering and electrifying classic vehicle legends like the first-generation Ford Broncos, Ford F-250s, and Defender 110s. As the global push for electrification intensifies, countries such as Norway, Germany, the Netherlands, Britain, and the United States have implemented zero-emission mandates for 2030 and 2035. This movement has left millions wondering what will become of the 1.6 billion gas-powered vehicles currently on the road. Zero Labs has worked tirelessly to provide an answer, ensuring that the most important existing vehicles will continue to be enjoyed for generations without compromising on sustainability.
A Revolution in Classic Electrification
After three years of intensive development and testing, Zero Labs presents the reimagined 5-door Land Rover Series 109 for 2025—an electric rebirth of an automotive icon. Unlike DIY conversion shops that rely on outdated drivetrain technology, low-quality replacement body parts, or salvaged EV parts, Zero Labs has meticulously redesigned thousands of details for this vehicle to deliver modern comfort, safety, and performance.

"Global electrification of existing vehicles has been largely ignored," said Adam Roe, Founder and CEO of Zero Labs Automotive. "Despite increasing global demand, venture capital consistently overlooks the potential of a proven scalable solution for existing vehicles, let alone securing a future for the $1.7 trillion worth of high-net-worth classic vehicle customers. Since launching Zero Labs, we've received over 80,000 order requests, often totaling $1-3 million per day for electrification services. This demand motivated us to rethink and innovate, eliminating older dependencies and redesigning everything without wasting billions on overseas robotic factories. The result is a remastered, handcrafted masterpiece that seamlessly blends the past with the future."
Third-Party Endorsement and Industry Partnerships
Several experts have acknowledged Zero Labs' contributions to electrifying classic vehicles, including The Wall Street Journal, GQ, Esquire, Robb Report, Motor Trend, and Wired Magazine's Best Auto Tech of CES. Tom Ford, an automotive industry analyst, stated in a feature video: “There are plenty of companies out there that will improve an old classic to your taste … but not a single one of them makes anything remotely like this. When you get to this level of quality, it's less about being a car and more about being a rolling piece of automotive artwork. And I think the world is a better place for it." – TopGear

In addition to its proprietary platform, Zero Labs has established relationships with hundreds of leading electric motor, battery, and EV parts manufacturers ignored by mass manufacturers to support the production of a new generation of electrification products launching in Q4 2024. This approach allows Zero Labs and top EV manufacturers to scale independently, without relying solely on selection for new car production.

Addressing a Global Need for Electrification
"Billions are spent annually on new electric car companies that account for only 14-18% of global new car sales and represent just 2-3% of the total global car fleet," Roe added. "New electric vehicles alone won't solve the problem of global emissions. Zero Labs represents the only scalable solution for 99% of the world's current vehicles, starting with the most iconic models."
