??Are We There Yet
??We are curious to know if the mobility experts from the past had a flawless plan for infrastructure that we can no longer consult.
It's unfortunate that we can't benefit from their expertise anymore. However, I am thrilled about the creative solutions that today's experts suggest to overcome obstacles when buying electric vehicles. eMobility, innovation, and progress are not entirely new concepts.
■Did you know that the world's first standard electric car was produced in 1884, and it was able to be reproduced and sold to the public?
At the beginning of the 1900s, one-third of all vehicles were electric. However, they began to disappear rapidly around 1920 with the introduction of gasoline and Henry Ford. Ferdinand Porsche, the founder of the eponymous sports car, produced an electric vehicle called the 'P' in 1898, before creating the world's first hybrid offering, driven by electricity and a combustion engine.
Mercedes-Benz also offered an electric model called the Mercedes Mixte in 1906, which was adopted as a taxi in the cities and even became a race car in 1907.
