Hmm.
Zelectric does 911s and 912s, their builds look clean.
Aston Martin themselves planned on doing conversions - they called it the 'Heritage EV' program, but news seems to have dried up on it.

Depending on your budget - there's a British company called 'Lunaz' which is doing classic Bentleys, Jaguars, Rolls Royces, etc. Their prices start at 300k for a Range Rover so a Bentley would be 500k at least.

All these seem to be for classics, as the newer cars get exponentially more complicated.

Zero EV does conversions on most anything and they're well respected around here.

Are you thinking classic or newer, and what sort of budget range do you have?

I'm doing a 2010 Panamera.

The newer the vehicle the more software hours you will need.
In my case no gearbox MCU and engine MCU.

I'm not aware of anyone offering a hybrid swap but it is a project I have just started. I'd be happy to keep you updated as it progresses. My project is based on the 8hp hybrid transmission and should be (relatively) easily adapted to any vehicle using the standard 8hp or other zf transmissions.
