In an age where electric vehicles are often defined by sameness — minimalist interiors, touchscreen everything, and quiet competence — Everrati is betting on something more emotional: a car that feels as personal as it is sustainable.
The UK-based company, known for redefining classic cars with electric powertrains, has launched “Artisan,” an immersive design program that allows clients to commission a one-of-a-kind electric vehicle. It’s not about options lists or bespoke trim; this is a full-scale, hands-on creative journey, more akin to commissioning a yacht or private jet than speccing a car.
“This is more than customization; it’s a deeply personal commissioning journey shaped entirely around our client’s personal vision,” says Justin Lunny, Everrati’s Founder and CEO.
While most electric vehicle makers focus on mass production, Everrati’s new initiative pushes in the opposite direction — toward rarity, storytelling, and craftsmanship. Artisan clients will collaborate with designers to create entirely unique EVs based on redefined automotive legends, from the Porsche 911 to the GT40 and Land Rover Series IIA.
At the center of Artisan is Libby Meigh, who joined Everrati in 2024 as Automotive Customization & Materials Consultant. Meigh’s background in luxury design brings a highly curated lens to the project, with a focus on texture, tone, and sustainable sourcing. She describes her role not as selecting finishes, but as building a design language around the personal lives of Everrati’s clients.
“A client may come with something of real sentimental value — a handbag, a watch, a piece of furniture,” says Meigh. “It’s an exciting challenge to translate these ideas into their new Everrati vehicle seamlessly.”
The goal, according to Meigh, is not to overwhelm with choice but to offer meaningful creative translation. Her team has introduced fresh color palettes and finish materials designed to bridge heritage and innovation — an approach that celebrates legacy while updating it for an electric future.
“Luxury is about rarity, authenticity, and the service that surrounds the product,” she adds. “At Everrati, no two vehicles will ever be the same.”
That sense of service extends beyond design. Artisan represents Everrati’s continued commitment to sustainable luxury — a segment still finding its identity in the automotive world. While many EV makers stop at the battery, Everrati takes a more holistic approach: carefully sourcing sustainable materials, working with low-impact suppliers, and building vehicles in a way that honors the craft of the originals.
Their leather supplier, for example — Bridge of Weir — operates a fully circular facility with minimal landfill output. Provenance and traceability aren’t marketing buzzwords in this space; they’re built into the commissioning brief.
To be clear, Everrati doesn’t manufacture new cars. Instead, they redefine existing icons, maintaining their historic design and structure while replacing the combustion guts with cutting-edge electric performance. Critics may question whether such transformations compromise authenticity — but the company argues the opposite. Without electrification, many of these beloved vehicles would be relegated to private collections or banned from roads altogether.
In that sense, Artisan is more than a design program. It’s a philosophical statement about the future of classic motoring. Rather than locking these vehicles in time, it attempts to extend their lives — through innovation, through emotion, and through an unusually intimate relationship between builder and buyer.
What emerges from Artisan isn’t just a sustainable luxury vehicle. It’s a cultural artifact — one that blends history and technology in ways most modern carmakers are too big, or too risk-averse, to attempt.
For those seeking more than a car — something rarer, more personal, and built to last in both form and values — Everrati’s Artisan program opens a new lane in the EV space. Not faster. Not cheaper. Just more intentional.
And perhaps, in the rush toward electrification, that’s the kind of forward motion the industry needs most.
