Driving the future, then and now: the story of the EV1
Note: The GM EV1 was one of the first modern electric vehicles—and it helped shape the EVs you see on the road today.
Originally introduced in the 1990s, the EV1 proved that electric vehicles could be efficient, reliable, and practical for every day living. It introduced innovations like regenerative braking, advanced batter technology, and aerodynamic design, which are now standard in modern EVs.
