When Was The First Electric Car Made?
The Early History of electric vehicles :
The Electric vehicles can be tracked back to the 19th, while Inventors and Engineers started experimenting by using electricity to power vehicles. The First electric car built by Hungarian Anyos Jedlik in 1828, even though it was not a useful mode of transportation.Â
 Â
In 1884, the first workable electric automobile built by Thomas Parker, a British inventor and businessman. With rechargeable battery, this car could reach speeds up to 14mph. During this time period, Electric cars were viewed as a potential alternative rather than gasoline-powered vehicles, and numerous businesses began making them. In the early 20th century, popularity of electric cars reduced significantly after invention of the internal combustion engine and the discovery of oil.

The invention of the first electric car
The first electric car by Hungarian Anyos Jedlik which was built in 1828, was a modest model with a little electric motor attached to a wooden cart
Due to a single battery powering the motor, the vehicles tops speed up to 3mph. Despite this innovation, considered proof of concept and was not practical for day to day usage.
Following Hungarian Anyos Jedlik in 1884, the first workable electric automobile powered by rechargeable battery was built by Thomas Parker a British inventor and businessman. The car could reach speeds of up to 14 mph and had a range of around 50 miles on a single charge. The development of electric vehicles advanced significantly as a result of Parker's invention, paving the path for future mass manufacture of electric vehicles.
