Bisimoto Engineering created the “935 K3V” as the company’s first electric conversion project. The all-electric custom was built to resemble the Porsche 935 K3, a racing variant of the 911 Turbo originally designed for the highly competitive FIA Group 5 production-based racing class in the late 1970s. In addition to an electric motor derived from a Tesla Model S and a regenerative braking system, the car features a widebody kit crafted from original Kremer molds that sits on a 1984 911 chassis. Its striking livery was conceived for maximum visibility and references Tetsu Ikuzawa, the first Japanese Porsche factory driver.
