Electric DeLorean DMC-12 in the Works

The reborn DeLorean Motor Co. announced Friday that an electric DeLorean was in the works for 2013. And not "electric" as in "exciting" -- though it could be that, too -- but as in actually electric: Texas-based DMC will partner with start-up Epic EV to produce an electric vehicle that reportedly will achieve 125 mph from 260 horsepower -- and cost anywhere from $90,000 to $100,000.

A prototype electric DeLorean was unveiled in a surprise move during the DMC Texas Open House for DeLorean owners at the company's headquarters in Humble, Texas. DMC owner Stephen Wynne said that the new vehicle represents "major leaps forward" and that "as far as substantial updates go, it's been 30 years."

Yes, we noticed.

DMC-released specs are included after the jump.
