Jaguar XK 150

Our Jaguar XK 150 comes in British Racing Green, with spoked rims and a beautiful, classic shape. A little less classic: its Swiss-made electric drive with 150 kW of power.

History

This beautiful Jaguar XK 150 from 1960 has been enriching our workshop since 2020. This vehicle is not a customer project, but a showcase project with which we wanted to provide insights into the transformation process, but also try out new things. For example, this vehicle is our first vehicle with a fast-charging function. We also broke new ground when it came to the engine with the PhiPower disc motor produced in Switzerland. A motor that, in one form or another, is now used in many of our projects.

The transformation is documented in the following posts (only in German).

1

Battery box in front

Front batteries, connected in series with the batteries in the rear, with a total energy of 54 kWh and a nominal voltage of 355 V. A battery management system (BMS) monitors and controls the individual cells.

2

Battery box rear

Rear batteries, connected in series with the batteries in the front, with a total energy of 54 kWh and a nominal voltage of 355 V. A battery management system (BMS) monitors and controls the individual cells.

Motor and transmission

A PHI301 disc-rotor electric motor from Phi-Power is used to replace the combustion engine. The fixed-ratio gearbox transmits the torque to the differential via the cardan shaft. The motor has a maximum power of 150 kW (204 hp) and a maximum torque of 450 Nm.

4

Inverter

An PM150DX from Cascadiamotion is used as the inverter. This converts the battery's DC voltage into the AC voltage required by the motor and controls the motor.

5

Charger

The charger offers both AC charging with 22 kW and DC fast charging.

6

HV Heater

A high-voltage heater supplies the heating circuit with hot water.

7

vacuum pump

The servo brake is now operated by an electric vacuum pump. It generates the vacuum in the vacuum reservoir in place of the combustion engine.

8

DCDC converter

The DCDC converter transforms high voltage to 13.8 V.
