Around the same time, he created the worldâs first hybrid electric car -- a vehicle that is powered by electricity and a gas engine. Thomas Edison, one of the worldâs most prolific inventors, thought electric vehicles were the superior technology and worked to build a better electric vehicle battery.ere in the U.S., the first successful electric car made its debut around 1890 thanks to William Morrison, a chemist who lived in Des Moines, Iowa. His six-passenger vehicle capable of a top speed of 14 miles per hour was little more than an electrified wagon, but it helped spark interest in electric vehicles.
