1942 Oeuf Electrique
Taking french courses could have helped you to translate this car’s name but by judging by its odd shape you already guessed what it means.
Translated literally from french, it means the “electric egg” and the main feature makes it resemble with a bubble.
The vehicle was created by a famous designer in Paris who previously was making trains and paintings.
He came up with this car for those who needed a light transportation way back in 1942 but couldn’t afford the gas.
So the car was made to be light, with a Plexiglas roof made by hand, the rest of the car from aluminium.
Some extra important features was the fact that the car was a three wheeler and most important that it ran with batteries.
