> - First hydrogen fuel cell: 1842 > - Earliest li-ion battery: 1965~ You just limit to lithium-ion to mislead. Battery vehicles predate all of that: > The invention of the first model electric vehicle is attributed to various people.[7] In 1828, the Hungarian priest and physicist Ányos Jedlik invented an early type of electric motor, and created a small model car powered by his new motor. Between 1832 and 1839, Scottish inventor Robert Anderson also invented a crude electric carriage.[8] In 1835, Professor Sibrandus Stratingh of Groningen, the Netherlands and his assistant Christopher Becker from Germany also created a small-scale electric car, powered by non-rechargeable primary cells.[9] -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_electric_vehicle#Electric_model_cars https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_electric_vehicl...
