In 1900, the United States was full of electric cars. In fact, over 1/3 of all of America's automobiles were electric. But then, something happened. Electric cars went extinct. The gasoline car took over, and from its reign emerged carbon dioxide, pollution, smog, and climate change. But even as an electric vehicle revolution takes hold, the battle has only just begun. In Infinity MPG, Nathan Maybach offers a new and revolutionary look at the electric car, taking us back to the very beginning of automobiles, from the first electric cars to the Tesla Model S and Jaguar I-Pace. By taking a close look at carbon emissions, the internal combustion engine, and even corporate battles, Maybach weaves a story of deception, power, and conflict, offering an unsettling look into our definition of the automobile. Written with pragmatic flair, this is the untold story of the electric car.
