After nine months and $61,418.90, Legacy EV produced a 993 featuring two electric engines (in the rear, of course) putting out 254hp and 346 ft/lbs of torque. Unusual for an EV, this power is directed by a manual transmission. Legacy EV says the range is 135 theoretical miles, with a 6 kW/h charge rate and total battery capacity of 44.4 kW/h.
