" The DeLorean Motor Company is a nostalgic and stainless-steel bodied blast from the past, especially for fans of the Back to the Future movie trilogy. Go ahead, you know you want to start quoting lines from the films...we&amp;#039;ll wait. Believe it or not, DeLorean has some pretty big plans for the future, naturally. The company plans to build brand new, and entirely electric-powered, versions of the DMC-12 coupe. The finished product should make even Doc Brown proud. Now based in Humble, Texas, the DeLorean Motor Company of the present holds the rights to the company name and DMC-12 sports coupe. It also serves as the largest inventory for original parts and equipment, to help keep your classic DeLorean on the road.  The new electric model is due in 2013. Powered by a lithium-ion battery pack, the DeLorean DMC-12 EV is expected to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.0 seconds. Top speed should be 125 mph, which puts us safely beyond the 88 mph barrier needed for time travel. However, a range of only 70 miles could put a crimp on those long-distance drives outside of Hill Valley. Though you have to love the name of the California-based company behind the DMC-12 EV&amp;#039;s electric motor technology: Flux Power. And no, that&amp;#039;s not a joke. Each model will be custom-built, and priced at approximately $100,000. DeLorean can also build you a new gasoline-powered DMC-12 coupe for roughly half that amount. No word yet on a Mr. Fusion upgrade.
