RBW EV is a UK-based manufacturer of hand-crafted electric sports cars. It’s a nearly eight-year-old family business, and family is important to founder Peter Swain. For example, the company’s name, RBW, represents the first letter of each name of Swain’s children, Rose, Becky, and Wesley.
For years, RBW has hand-built its GT and Roadster models overseas, including a little more than a year in its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Lichfield, England, which opened in late 2023.
Last year, the company unveiled its first left-hand drive Roadster and GT models at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Both cars are based on iconic British sports cars from the 1960s and 1970s and targeted towards RBW’s single largest market: the United States. The legendary Italian design firm Pininfarina originally designed the RBW GT EV coupe model.
