Tomoyasu Fujii was born in Onomichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture and is the current Hiroshima Chapter representative for the Japan Electric Vehicle Club. He came to know of electric-powered cars through learning about environmental issues after entering a company in Hiroshima City in 1993. A fan of the design works of Giorgetto Guigiaro, as well as the motion picture “Back to the Future”, he fell in love with the DeLorean and set off on a venture to convert the iconic vehicle into an electronic car in 2007. After receiving a base grade out-of-service DeLorean, he successfully completed the electronic conversion of the vehicle with the help of the followers from his blog on March 11 2009. Continuing to make refinements even after the vehicle’s initial completion, he has been able to carry out three further upgrades to his DeLorean as of July 2016. Aside from this, he has also been involved with similar modifications of the Rover MINI while advocating the restoration of old vehicles by means of electronic car conversion. His current passions include sustainable societal development and energy. He is striving to achieve his dream of one day having his DeLorean run on renewable energy.
