ICON 4x4’s electrified Ford Bronco combines 500 hp, 200 miles of range, and timeless vintage style in a bespoke restomod.
Famed restomod builder ICON 4x4 has unveiled its first-ever fully electric vehicle—a bespoke EV Bronco that blends classic Ford styling with cutting-edge electric performance.
Dubbed the “Blue Star,” the project marks ICON’s entrance into the electric future of automotive customization. Known for breathing new life into vintage Land Cruisers, Cherokees, and Defenders, the California-based shop took on one of its most ambitious builds to date—converting a first-generation Ford Bronco into a high-performance EV without losing the soul of the original design.
Built in collaboration with Moment Motor Company of Austin, Texas, the project took 18 months and more than 5,000 hours of engineering and testing. The result is a Bronco unlike any other. Packing a 105-kWh battery and a 400-volt architecture, the EV produces 500 horsepower, launches from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, and offers up to 200 miles of range.
“This was a dream project,” said ICON founder Jonathan Ward. “Our client gave us the freedom to push boundaries, and we’ve delivered an EV that honors the heritage of the Bronco while redefining what it can be.”
The EV Bronco features full-time four-wheel drive, massive off-road tires, upgraded suspension, and modern amenities like air conditioning and audio—all housed in a classically styled interior with bespoke blue-and-white leather and custom gauges designed to display EV information with a vintage flair.
Charging is handled via an onboard 6.6kW system or fast-charged with CCS, and the waterproof battery is IP67 rated for rugged adventures.
ICON says the Blue Star is only the beginning, with more electric restomods planned as EV technology continues to evolve.
