The cool part is the new car will be all electric. Unfortunately, it is not food or trash powered. Maybe they should get together with “Researchers at the University of Warwick”. If they can create a chocolate-powered car, maybe they can create a Back to the Future car.
From what I can tell, it is scheduled for release in 2013. The cost is estimated between $90,000 and $100,000.
According to the sources, this car is coming from the combined efforts of The DeLorean Motor Company based out of Houston and Epic EV.

The funny thing is that the DeLorean was always a failure. It’s a great hobby car however (which I totally love). So saying it’s making a comeback implies that it’s coming back to some modicum of success. In truth, DMC Houston is making the car relevant in today’s world.
