The Electric Car to Rule Them All


Introducing the Zombie 222; The Mustang That Just Says 'NO' to Gasoline.

The stock V8 engine has been replaced by two electric motors rated at a total 440 volts. They’re linked to a high-capacity battery pack designed for track driving. This all sends over 800 horsepower and 1,800 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels. Here is another shot:
