There are no whirring and grinding gears with their numerous levers to confuse, no dangerous and evil-smelling gasoline and no noise.” THOMAS EDISON Thomas Edison With His First Electric Car, The Edison Baker, 1895 J.

In fact, Edison held a number of patents related to the electric vehicle, including Electric Generator or Motor (1884), a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891), a Reversible Galvanic Battery (1900), an Electrode for Batteries (1901), an Alkaline Battery (1904), and an Electrical System for Automobiles (1912). Edison’s patent on a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891) related more to trolleys than automobiles, but his general description laid the groundwork for his 1904 Electric Automobile Patent. • https://insideevs.com/revealed-thomas-edison-shocks-world-with-1904-electric-automobile-patent/ J.
