The Chrysler ETV-1 was a passenger car glider that Chrysler produced as a test bed for motor and drive controls, with a General Electric motor, and was claimed to be the first ground-up modern electric vehicle design. Two were built, the ETV-1 and the ETV-1-2; the original is in private hands and the second is in the Boyertown Museum of Historic Vehicles in Pennsylvania. A front-mounted 30.5 kilowatt separately excited electric motor drove the front axle, with claimed acceleration from 0 to 48 km/h in 9.0 seconds and a top speed of 105 km/h, from a removable T-shaped pack of 18 six-volt batteries of about 12.7 kilowatt-hours.
