Раритетный электромобиль 1918 года продан за $140 000 — дороже современной Tesla

В США на аукционе RM Sotheby's был продан уникальный электромобиль Detroit Electric Model 75A Brougham 1918 года выпуска за $140 000. Эта сумма превышает стоимость многих современных электрокаров, включая некоторые модели Tesla.

Detroit Electric был одним из ведущих производителей электромобилей в начале XX века. С 1907 по 1939 годы компания выпустила около 13 000 автомобилей. Электрокары этой марки пользовались популярностью среди состоятельных женщин благодаря простоте управления и отсутствию необходимости заводить двигатель вручную, как это требовалось у бензиновых автомобилей того времени.

Модель 75A Brougham отличалась элегантным дизайном, напоминающим карету, и просторным салоном, где пассажиры сидели лицом друг к другу. Вместо привычного рулевого колеса использовался рычаг управления. Автомобиль мог развивать скорость до 40 км/ч, а запас хода составлял от 110 до 160 км, в зависимости от версии.


Примечательно, что среди владельцев Detroit Electric были такие известные личности, как изобретатель Томас Эдисон, промышленник Джон Д. Рокфеллер и Клара Форд, жена Генри Форда.

Проданный на аукционе экземпляр прошёл реставрацию, в ходе которой были установлены современные аккумуляторы, что увеличило его дальность хода. Несмотря на возраст, автомобиль сохранил оригинальный внешний вид и интерьер, что делает его особенно ценным для коллекционеров.


Высокая цена продажи отражает не только историческую значимость Detroit Electric, но и растущий интерес к ранним электромобилям, которые предвосхитили современные тенденции в автомобильной промышленности.
