UK-based EV conversion specialist Electrogenic has converted five of Jason Momoa’s cherished vintage vehicles to electric power — including three 100-year-old Harley-Davidson motorcycles reimagined as plug-in hybrids

What's Happening

The builds are featured in Season 2 of Momoa’s HBO documentary series On The Roam , streaming now. The project includes two extremely rare classic Land Rovers converted to all-electric drive with 150+ miles of range, a battery-equipped off-grid camping trailer, and the three Harleys that can switch between electric, petrol, and combined hybrid power on the fly. Electrogenic is now selling conversion kits for both the Land Rovers and the Harleys.

Why This Matters for EV Owners

The Bigger Picture

This development reflects broader shifts in the European EV market as charging infrastructure expands and new models enter the market..

Charging Infrastructure: London, UK

London has seen rapid charging deployment through BP Pulse, Gridserve, and Tesla. The UK's Right to Charge law gives tenants the right to request EV charger installation.

EVRoutes indexes over 500,000+ charging stations across 30 European countries, aggregated from providers including Tesla Supercharger, Ionity, Fastned, Allego, and more.

Real-World Range Considerations

EVRoutes' route calculations account for real-world conditions. In winter, expect 15-30% range reduction due to battery chemistry and cabin heating. Pro tip: Pre-conditioning the battery before DC fast charging can improve charging speeds by up to 30% in cold weather.

What to Watch Next

As the EV landscape continues to evolve, developments like this shape the transition to electric mobility across Europe..
