Ford first explored the world of electric vehicles way back in 1967, with a tiny city commuter car aptly named the Comuta.
This tiny vehicle was created solely for the British market, and was developed as an experimental car by Ford’s Dunton Technical Centre.
Using four 12-volt lead-acid batteries, it offered a range of 60 kilometers (37 miles) at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour (25 mph).
Clearly no speed demon, this early EV nevertheless shows a time capsule peek at what 1960s vehicle electrification looked like.
