Timeless,

Paul Bracq’s 1963 icon, electrified and hand-built
one commission at a time.
Designed in 1963. Built for today.
The W113 SL debuted at the 1963 Geneva Motor Show and defined stylish open-top motoring for a decade. Everrati preserves its character and balance, and adds silent, effortless electric performance.
Developed under chief engineer Rudolf Uhlenhaut, the W113 earned its “Pagoda” nickname from Paul Bracq’s concave hardtop. Its owners have ranged from John Lennon and Audrey Hepburn to Juan Manuel Fangio.
Every Everrati Pagoda begins with a donor taken back to its bare shell, acid-dipped, protected against corrosion and rebuilt entirely by hand. That’s more than 3,000 hours of specialist craftsmanship in every commission.
Fully Charged
Up to 200 miles from a 60 kWh pack, with AC charging and CCS DC fast charging from 20–80% in around 40 minutes.
Concours Finish
Every commission begins with an original W113, stripped to its bare shell and rebuilt to a standard better than new.
OEM-Grade Powertrain
Helix electric motors and Everrati’s EverCore control system deliver 338 bhp and 393 Nm, with 0–60 mph in under six seconds.

Electric Mercedes-Benz Pagoda FAQs.
Is the Electric Pagoda for Sale?
Yes. Every electric Pagoda is sold as a built-to-order commission in either Standard or Touring specification. Build slots are limited, so contact the Everrati team to confirm current availability.
How Much Does an Electric Mercedes-Benz Pagoda Cost?
Each car is specified individually, so pricing is quoted on application once your specification and chosen powertrain are agreed. Request a pricing pack via the contact page.
Can I Finance an Electric Pagoda?
Yes. Everrati offers financing solutions, and a staged payment schedule is agreed when you place your order.
Can I Supply My Own Pagoda, or Do I Need to Buy One?
Either. You can commission a conversion of a car you already own, or Everrati can assist with sourcing a suitable W113 SL to buy.
Which Specification Should I Order?
Choose Standard if you want the freed-up luggage space and around 160 miles of range. Choose Touring if you want more than 200 miles per charge and 0-60 mph in under 7 seconds. Both use the same 300 bhp motor.
Which W113 Variants Can Be Converted?
Everrati works with 230SL, 250SL, and 280SL variants produced between 1963 and 1971.
Is the Electric Conversion Reversible?
Yes. The process is fully reversible, and the original weight and balance are maintained, which protects the car’s heritage and its resale value.
How Do You Charge an Electric Pagoda?
AC and DC fast charging are included as standard, so the car works with both home charging equipment and public fast-charging networks.

Every electric Pagoda is sold as a built-to-order commission. You can bring us your own W113, or we can help you source the right car to buy.
Paul Bracq’s styling masterpiece was built to exceptional standards, from its individually numbered alloy bonnet, bootlid and door skins to detail work that still rewards close inspection, and it remains one of the most stylish cars ever created. Available as 230SL, 250SL and 280SL variants from 1963 to 1971, the Pagoda represents pure engineered glamour for those who truly appreciate automotive artistry and design that has aged gracefully across decades.
The Pagoda’s Enduring Appeal
The W113 SL established itself as the grand tourer for discerning drivers who valued refinement over raw muscle, and its proportions remain absolutely correct today in ways that transcend automotive fashion. The distinctive concave hardtop roofline, which inspired its “Pagoda” nickname, creates an iconic silhouette that commands attention while maintaining an understated elegance that speaks to sophistication rather than showiness.
Over sixty years since its introduction, the Pagoda continues to captivate collectors and enthusiasts who understand that great automotive design never truly becomes dated. Its owners have included John Lennon, Tina Turner, Audrey Hepburn and Harry Styles, which tells you something about a shape that has never needed updating.
How to Specify and Order Your Electric W113 SL
Transform your treasured Mercedes-Benz SL “Pagoda” into a masterpiece of contemporary engineering with Everrati’s customized electric conversion, which preserves the car’s celebrated design and craftsmanship while integrating advanced technology to create a truly unique vehicle.
Two versions of our proprietary OEM-grade powertrain are available to order. The Standard specification pairs a 54.4 kWh battery with around 160 miles of range and 0-60 mph in under 8 seconds, and frees up luggage space through the removal of the boot-mounted battery box. The extended-range Touring specification uses a 68 kWh battery for more than 200 miles per charge and 0-60 mph in under 7 seconds. Both share the same 300 bhp electric motor, a limited-slip differential and regenerative braking that allows one-pedal driving when the opportunity arises, with a top speed of 124 mph. Your choice of powertrain is confirmed at order and factored into your quotation.
The conversion process begins with a comprehensive restoration where every component receives meticulous attention, and only after achieving concours-level restoration does the electric powertrain integrate seamlessly into the car’s engineering. You can review each stage on The Process. Charging your Pagoda is straightforward, whether you use home charging infrastructure or public fast-charging networks, since AC and DC fast charging are both included as standard. Every car passes R100.01 electrical safety certification before delivery.
Everrati’s commitment to authenticity ensures the original weight and balance are meticulously maintained, which preserves the Pagoda’s iconic driving dynamics and allows future generations to appreciate its timeless charm through our reversible process that safeguards the car’s heritage and its value on resale. The interior can be specified in soft leather hide from our partner Bridge of Weir, maker of the automotive industry’s lowest carbon leather, and personalized in full through Artisan by Everrati.
