Handcrafted with electric power

Based in the heart of England's advanced manufacturing zone, the Midlands Growth Corridor.  Each Roadster and GT model is assembled in RBW’s state-of-the-art factory, ensuring the highest standards of quality and attention to detail.

These vehicles are not restorations or replicas—they are entirely new creations, built from the ground up with modern engineering and a rear-mounted electrified powertrain.

Peter Swain, Founder of RBW Sports & Classics

Peter Swain, Founder of RBW Sports & Classics, states:

"Transforming classic cars into electric vehicles is about preserving the spirit of automotive history while embracing the future. We’re not just converting these cars; we’re giving them a new lease on life, ensuring that their legacy endures in a sustainable, modern world."

A modern twist on vintage design

RBW’s Roadster and GT models are more than just cars; they are a celebration of British motoring heritage.

Inspired by the iconic sports cars of the 1960s and 70s, the vehicles offer the quintessential British driving experience.

However, unlike their predecessors, RBW’s cars are equipped with the latest EV technologies, providing drivers with the performance, reliability and luxury of a contemporary EV.

The visionary behind RBW

Founded in 2017 by Peter Swain, RBW Sports & Classics has quickly made a name for itself in the automotive industry. Swain’s vision was to create a brand that would preserve the elegance and style of classic British sports cars while embracing the future of transportation.

This vision attracted significant attention, leading to RBW receiving its first round of venture funding in 2023—a milestone that has propelled the company’s growth and innovation.
