Historical evolution

The electric vehicle is not a recent invention: the first prototypes appeared in around 1830. Then, the electric car was progressively developed, as batteries improved with the work of Gaston Plante and Camille Faure during the second half of the 19^th century. In 1881, an electric car model was presented at the electricity international exhibition in Paris. The electric vehicle became a great success in Europe and in the United States in the late 19th century, essentially for urban mobility. Charging points had been first implemented in Paris since 1898, and several experiences of electric public transports were made, as batteries’ autonomy improved.
