Somerset EV has been building, converting, and electrifying agricultural machinery since 2019. From tractor conversion kits to full bespoke projects.
Established in 2019, Somerset EV was created to explore the possibilities of EV conversions with a focus on the agricultural world. Now with 6 years of experience and multiple real-world examples, we offer conversion kits on demand.
We firmly believe the cheapest and greenest way to an EV-powered tractor is to use the tractor you already have. We're also able to assist with conversions, repairs, and upgrades to electric drivetrains and batteries on all vehicles.
Get in Touch →Every project is different. Whether you need a bolt-on kit or a ground-up conversion, we tailor the solution to your machinery and budget.
Purpose-built kits for small farm tractors. Our Leyland 255 conversion is proven in the field. DIY Kits from £15,000, with battery packs from 12kWh to 50kWh+.
Replace or upgrade batteries on previously converted or originally electric vehicles.
Years of conversion experience across agriculture and beyond. We advise on feasibility, carry out as much work as needed, or supply kits for DIY installation.
Kits and conversions can be tailored to your requirements, with full modular design allowing you to spec the battery, motor, and charging to suit your daily workload.
Options include DIY installation of mechanical parts with HV work done by us, or a full turnkey conversion service.
Real conversions, real conditions.
The electric Leyland 255 doing real farm work — no noise, no emissions.
We firmly believe some of the best solutions available are from the open source community. Somerset EV actively contributes development and real-world testing to key open source projects.
The use of second-hand equipment is a key method in keeping costs down while reliability stays high. Electric motors from production EVs are the result of millions in R&D and hundreds of thousands of real-world hours.
Whether it's a tractor, quad bike, or something more unusual — if you want to electrify it, we want to hear about it. Drop us an email and we'll get back to you promptly.
