They made lovely cars according to the design capabilities of the particular time, but the Roberts Electric Car pretty much matched the Volt. It got 40 mpg and more “as soon as an effective battery of light weight is discovered” Progress for the progressive. Every so often from then to now, someone would get all excited about the potential of the electric car. But nobody knows where any battery “breakthrough” will come from. They have tried everything that engineering and science know. I like that Detroit Electric.
