> It’ll be interesting to see if converting classics will become more common

It'll depend on the owner, really. Some folks want the style of the older vehicle but the technology of the future, so they go the EV (or at least Restomod) route.

Many folks like the simplicity, the sounds, the smells, and the looks of the classics, so they leave them original (or make minor mods to make them more "livable" without sacrificing the original intent).

As for size, I have a '71 MGB GT which can fit quite a lot in the back. But I like how it smells, how it rumbles, how it sounds, and that B-series motor, so it'll stay mostly original (though I have a hotter engine ready to go in it).
