Everrati Automotive Limited Unveils Electric SL ‘Pagoda’

Everrati Automotive Limited reveals is new zero-emissions Mercedes-Benz SL W113 “Pagoda.” Hand-built and restored to concours standards by Mercedes-Benz specialists and powered with an electric powertrain developed and manufactured in-house by Everrati, the SL “Pagoda” has been handcrafted as an open top grand tourer.

Like all Everrati redefinitions, EV technology is integrated using CAD to to keep with the true spirit of the original and its manufacturer. The transformation to electric power involves the optimization of weight distribution – keeping these metrics as close to the donor SL “Pagoda” as much as possible – while chassis response, performance and safety are enhanced, reinvigorating the vehicle’s character. Structural integrity is also retained, and the conversion is completely reversible, maintaining value and options into the future.

“Our electric Mercedes-Benz SL ‘Pagoda’ is a benchmark for understated luxury. This meticulously restored and redefined car is the ultimate two-seater electric luxury grand tourer, a unique proposition which pays homage to the history of the legendary SL ‘Pagoda,” said Justin Lunny, Everrati co-founder and CEO. “This Pagoda is fully future-proofed, enabling it to be enjoyed today – and in the hands of the next generation tomorrow. Everrati is witnessing a demand for high-end sustainable vehicles which retain timeless design and character.”

For the redefined SL “Pagoda,” two versions of Everrati’s proprietary electric powertrain are available, enabling customers to tailor their vehicle to specific use. As standard, the electrified SL “Pagoda” comes with a 54.4kWh battery, enabling 160 miles of zero emission range and 0-60-mph in under 8 seconds. Prioritizing greater performance and distance, a ‘Touring’ version is also available, featuring a larger 68kWh battery allowing an extended range of more than 200 miles and a sub 7 second 0-60-mph time.

Both versions feature a 300bhp electric motor, a limited slip differential and regenerative braking allowing “one-pedal” driving. AC and DC fast charging is also included, allowing owners to top up en-route quickly.

Inside, the redefined interior of the SL “Pagoda” can be specified with a soft leather with matte finish and haircell grain from Everrati partner Bridge of Weir, maker of the world’s lowest carbon leather in the automotive industry. Covering the comfortable seats, as well as the dashboard and door panels, this material is available in Vanilla, Cashmere, and Fawn, to the darker Fastnet and Black hide colors.

Other stand-out details include custom-designed dials, showing vital information whilst maintaining an ‘original’ appearance. Combined with optional modern conveniences such as Bluetooth controlled audio and heated seats, “Pagoda” is fully equipped for a short cruise or a longer touring journey.
