Detroit Electric

Electric power is at the heart of everything we do. We’re striving to create efficient, exciting cars that you’ll want to drive. It started with the SP:01 and it will continue with the next generation of Detroit Electric vehicles, designed to provide Pure Electric Performance.

We were designing the cars of the future in the early 20th century and we fully intend to continue where we left off with our next generation of electric vehicles. #PureElectricPerformance

'Positive energy is vital to the success of our brand.' We're proud to be a part of a positive and forward-thinking industry, and we're looking forward to making our bold contribution to the #EV world.

Our R&D team put in a fantastic effort to make the SP:01 the excellent car it is. Now its focus is on delivering exciting new models that will provide Pure Electric Performance.

In the early 1900's, Detroit Electric was a major part of an electric car scene that made up over 30% of cars on America's roads. #ThrowbackThursday bit.ly/2ETBr53

Our first production car, SP:01. A fantastic machine that truly delivers our mantra: Pure Electric Performance.

Ever wondered what charging your car used to look like? @ElectrekCo visited Thomas Edison’s garage in New Jersey and saw the purpose-built car charging station, complete with an original Detroit Electric Model 47. #ThrowbackThursday bit.ly/2HWLAuU

Looking to the future, in 2020 we plan to unveil our luxury sedan, the third model in our next generation family of pure electric vehicles!

Next year, we plan to introduce you to our brand new pure electric crossover vehicle – the second new face in our family of pure electric cars.

We are planning to unveil the first in our next generation of pure electric vehicles later this year. Stay tuned for updates on our new sports car.

#ThrowbackThursday to when scientists at Stanford University improved the Edison nickel-iron battery – the same kind used in early Detroit Electric cars! bit.ly/2HiyvMc

Our collective determination is to change perceptions of electric energy, improve everyday driving and challenge the motor industry. #ThinkElectric

Remember your roots. From our beginnings in 1907, through to today, we’ve always championed electric power and strived to make our cars as innovative and inspiring as possible.

@UltimativCars Maybe. Maybe not. You'll just have to wait and see!! 😀

The next year or so should prove very exciting for us – we look forward to bringing you exciting updates on developments here at #DetroitElectric.

#DidYouKnow Thomas Edison developed batteries for Detroit Electric vehicles? His nickel-iron batteries greatly improved early electric cars! #ThrowbackThursday
