The Land Rover is renowned for off-road versatility around the world. Although often used as a recreational vehicle, it was designed as a multi-purpose utility vehicle for rural areas.

With its excellent ground clearance and geared front and rear power-take-offs, it is far more than a superb all-weather vehicle; it can be used for everything from snow removal to drilling post holes.

In a truly rural setting, an electric powered utility vehicle has a tremendous advantage over its gasoline or diesel powered counterpart ... the operating fuel can be obtained on-site via solar collectors, or wind or hydro generators.

And whether on the move or doing stationary work, the clean electric power does not bathe the operator or passengers in exhaust fumes.

With almost 30 years of Land Rover experience converting a Land Rover as the EV Parts, Inc. shop truck was a natural. Our restored '71 provides endless enjoyment for our staff and visitors.

In the Spring of 1999 we did a little gas-vs-electric comparison between two similar Land Rovers. Our Land RoverFace Off page gives the details plus lots more photos.
