Moretti Elettroveicoli

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

Moretti Elettroveicoli is the name Wikipedia gives to the electric vehicles that Moretti built during the Second World War, when fuel was scarce. Wikipedia says the firm found success with a range of electric powered small trucks and a 5- or 7-seat electric car. The carrozzieri-italiani history names the two best known: the Elettrocarro, an electrically powered truck with a capacity of 30 quintals, and the Elettrovettura, a small minivan for public transport that could carry up to seven passengers. That history adds that production of both was limited and that no surviving specimens are known. After the war the firm turned back to cars with combustion engines, starting with the Cita.
