After recently re-watching my favorite Ken Burns documentary "Horatio's Drive", the amazing story of two men who made the first coast-to-coast automobile drive on a $50 bet in 1903, I began wondering who was the first to ever do it in an EV.
I found this post from 2012 that talks about several exploits, the earliest one referred to being this EV-1 run in '99. However the site says this was the "first time that such a cross-country trip has been attempted by a modern era, production electric car."
But was it the first EV coast-to-coast trip ever?
Apologies if this has already been discussed/answered elsewhere...
