At that time, interest in electric cars developed during the second gasoline crises in 1977, had died out, and it was very difficult for electric car owners to obtain information on maintaining and improving their electric cars. The club acted as a focal point for electric car owners. By 1986, over 900 electric vehicle owners world wide had joined the group. Most owners had either CitiCars, ComutaCars, Elcars (from Italy) or various conversions such as VW Beatles, Renault R5's, Renault Dalphine's, Bradly GT2's and even van conversions such as the Electric Jet Van. There was never a fee to join, though many members contributed their time and money to send out a newsletter and operate the BBS system. What distinguished Electric Car Owners Club™ members from so many other groups today, is that almost every member not only discussed electric cars, but also owned and drove electric cars on a regular basis.   The Electric Car Owners Club™ also maintained an extensive library and photo collection of various electric cars world wide. Sadly, some of the archives were destroyed in a fire in 1992. Nevertheless, much of the remaining archives (over 20,000 pages of records) are being scanned and edited and is expected to be published on CD-ROM in mid 2002. This database/archive should be of great interest to all electric car owners and enthusiasts.   The Electric Car Owners Club™ is also known as the Electric Car Society™. Today, the world wide web, with its many excellent electric vehicle related discussion groups and mailing lists, has very adequately covered the area that the Electric Car Owners Club™ had set out to do. We have been encourage all members to get on the web and join these groups. Over the next few months, a number of additional files will be placed on the WWW. Some of the files to be included are original CitiCar catalogs, repair, information, sources of parts and various databases. Electric car owners, enthusiasts and builders will probably find the upcoming CD-ROM of use.

Above is a preliminary sample of the plate that is expected to be issued by the State of New York which we are sponsoring. When the plates are availalbe, you will be able to order it directly from this site.

Critical and accurate assessment of electric vehicles Covers questions and answers regarding electric vehicles, including conversion, are they safe, are the practical, are they good for the environment and are they less expensive to run then gasoline powered vehicles. Who Killed the electric car? The answer is simple. No one. If anything, one can perhaps argue that the electric car tried to kill itself! The answers become more apparent when you read the technical issues regarding electric vehicles. The fact is that the electric car is alive and getting better. For the conspiracy theory types, it is interesting to note that in the turn of the last century, there were people who claimed that the electric conglomerates were trying to prevent gasoline cars from becoming popular! No one is holding back this technology. History of Electric Vehicles from 1834 to 1987 The Horseless Age First Car Magazine in the USA. Contains details on every early car. Fascinating.
