large number of commercial-purpose electric vehicles (e.g.
delivery trucks) from 1901 to 1906. They produced a 3-seater
electric car, the V.E. Electric, from 1903 to 1905. Most, if not
all, vehicles were shaft-drive. Vehicle types produced included
broughams, victorias, hansoms, landaulets, and commercial vehicles
include trucks and sightseeing buses. The factory burned in 1904,
and was rebuilt. The company went into receivership in 1906, and
was resurrected after reorganization as the General Vehicle
