Did you know that electric vehicles have been around since way back in 1832? That's more than 100 years before most of us were even born! It all started when a guy named Robert Anderson built the first electric carriage in Scotland. This early electric vehicle wasn't like the ones we see today—it was more of a small, battery-powered cart. But still, it was a big step forward in transportation history.

Back then, people were just starting to experiment with electricity and how it could power things. Anderson's electric carriage was one of the first examples of using electricity to move a vehicle. Even though it was just a simple cart, it paved the way for the electric cars we have today.

Since then, electric vehicles have come a long way. They've gotten faster, more efficient, and a lot more popular. Now, we see electric cars everywhere, from city streets to highways. It's pretty amazing to think that the idea of electric vehicles goes all the way back to the 1800s!
