Early electric carriages in the 1830s faced significant limitations primarily due to their reliance on non-rechargeable batteries, which severely restricted their range and practicality. Robert Anderson’s electric carriage, for example, was powered by such batteries, making it more of a curiosity than a reliable transportation device as it lacked the capability for recharging[4].
Moreover, the heavy and expensive lead-acid batteries, which came later, further limited electric vehicles' range to about 40–80 kilometers per charge[3]. This technological immaturity, coupled with the absence of adequate charging infrastructure, hindered the development and widespread adoption of electric vehicles during that era[6].

Welcome to our quick journey through the history of electric mobility in under two minutes. The story begins in the early 1830s when a Scottish inventor built a crude electric carriage, sparking the imagination of innovators around the world. Rechargeable lead acid batteries, invented in 1859 by a French scientist, opened the door to more practical electric vehicles. By the late 1800s, inventors in Britain and America were designing electric carriages that not only impressed at exhibitions but even set early speed records. In the early 1900s, electric taxis and family cars became popular in city centers for their smooth, quiet rides and ease of operation. However, with the introduction of the electric starter and the affordable, mass-produced gasoline-powered Model T, electric vehicles gradually fell out of favor. The oil crises of the later decades rekindled interest in alternative energy solutions. In recent years, advanced battery technology and innovative designs from companies like Tesla and Nissan have propelled electric mobility back into the spotlight, paving the way for a sustainable future. Thank you for joining this brief look at the evolution of electric vehicles. Drive safe and charge on!
