Ward (automobile Company)
The Ward Motor Vehicle Company was founded by Charles A. Ward in New York City as an electric truck company. When Hayden Eames joined the company, it made electric cars also, from 1914-1916. Models The Ward Electric car was a four-passenger coupe costing $2,100 and went 100 miles per charge. In 1916, the price was $875. The battery was an Edison battery Thomas Alva Edison (February11, 1847October18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices in fields such as electric power generation, mass communication, sound recording, and motion pictures. These inventions, .... In 1916, the price was dropped to $1,295. The company stopped electric car production after 1916. In the year 1928, the model program consisted of types B, C, E, G, J, and M. The model B was offered for 1770 dollars. The model C for 1960 dollars, the model E for 2440 dollars, the model G for 2920 dollars, the model J for 3980 dollars, and the model M for 4890 dollars.It cont ...

New York City
New York, often called New York City (NYC), is the most populous city in the United States, located at the southern tip of New York State on one of the world's largest natural harbors. The city comprises five boroughs, each coextensive with a respective county. The city is the geographical and demographic center of both the Northeast megalopolis and the New York metropolitan area, the largest metropolitan area in the United States by both population and urban area. New York is a global center of finance and commerce, culture, technology, entertainment and media, academics, and scientific output, the arts and fashion, and, as home to the headquarters of the United Nations, international diplomacy. With an estimated population in 2024 of 8,478,072 distributed over , the city is the most densely populated major city in the United States.

Electric Truck
An electric truck is a battery electric vehicle (BEV) designed to transport cargo, carry specialized payloads, or perform other utilitarian work. Electric trucks have serviced niche applications like milk floats, Ground support equipment#Pushback tugs and tractors, pushback tugs and Forklift#Battery-electric, forklifts for over a hundred years, typically using Lead-acid battery, lead-acid batteries, but the rapid development of lighter and more energy-dense Electric vehicle battery#Electric vehicle battery types, battery chemistries in the twenty-first century has broadened the range of applicability of electric propulsion to trucks in many more roles. Electric trucks reduce noise and pollution, relative to internal-combustion trucks. Due to the high efficiency and low component-counts of electric power trains, no fuel burning while idle, and silent and efficient acceleration, the costs of owning and operating electric trucks are dramatically lower than their predecessors.

Electric Car
An electric car or electric vehicle (EV) is a passenger car, passenger automobile that is propelled by an electric motor, electric traction motor, using electrical energy as the primary source of propulsion. The term normally refers to a plug-in electric vehicle, typically a battery electric vehicle (BEV), which only uses energy stored in electric vehicle battery, on-board battery packs, but broadly may also include plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), range extender, range-extended electric vehicle (REEV) and fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), which can convert electric power from other fuels via a electric generator, generator or a fuel cell. Compared to conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, electric cars are quieter, more responsive, have superior energy conversion efficiency and no exhaust gas#Main motor vehicle emissions, exhaust emissions, as well as a typically lower overall carbon footprint from manufacturing to end of life (even when a power pl ...

Edison Battery
Thomas Alva Edison (February11, 1847October18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices in fields such as electric power generation, mass communication, sound recording, and motion pictures. These inventions, which include the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and early versions of the electric light bulb, have had a widespread impact on the modern industrialized world. He was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of organized science and teamwork to the process of invention, working with many researchers and employees. He established the first industrial research laboratory. Edison was raised in the American Midwest. Early in his career he worked as a telegraph operator, which inspired some of his earliest inventions. In 1876, he established his first laboratory facility in Menlo Park, New Jersey, where many of his early inventions were developed. He later established a botanical laboratory in Fort Myers, Florida, in collab ...
