Echo3 Electric Automobiles Bring Electric Vehicles Within Reach of the Masses Like the Ford Model T
DENVER, June 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Echo3, the electric automobile company, is bringing electric vehicles to the masses much in the way Henry Ford's Model T did from 1908 to 1927. The First Model T became available in October 1908. The Model T is the 3rd most selling automobile of all time selling 16.5 million automobiles primarily for two reasons, affordability and new technology. The Model T touring sedan cost $825 in 1908 or about $22,991.85. The $825 price tag made the Model T within reach of middle class Americans. The turn of the century saw the country fascinated with new technology and the Model T brought the technology coast to coast.
