Detroit-Uila

ʻIke ʻO ka hoʻokumu ʻana a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka Detroit Electric Company Liquidation a me revival Museum hōʻike Detroit Electric Ua hana ʻia ka brand kaʻa "Detroit Electric" e ka Anderson Electric Car Company. Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ma 1907 a lilo koke i alakaʻi i kāna ʻoihana. Hoʻokumu ka hui i ka hana ʻana i nā kaʻa uila, no laila he niche kaʻawale i ka mākeke hou. I kēia lā, hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona he nui mai nā makahiki mua o ka ʻoihana i nā hale hōʻikeʻike kaulana, a hiki ke kūʻai ʻia nā mana kahiko no nā kālā nui i hiki i nā mea ʻohi a me nā poʻe waiwai loa ke loaʻa. Ua lilo nā kaʻa i hōʻailona o ka hana kaʻa i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia XNUMX a lanakila i ka hoihoi maoli o ka poʻe aloha kaʻa, ʻoiai he ʻano manaʻo maoli lākou i kēlā mau lā. I kēia lā, ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo "Detroit Electric" i ka mōʻaukala, ʻoiai ʻo ka 2016 wale nō i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i hoʻokahi kumu hoʻohālike o nā kaʻa uila hou i kahi helu palena. ʻO ka hoʻokumu ʻana a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka hui Detroit Electric Ua hoʻomaka ka moʻolelo o ka hui ma 1884, akā ua ʻike ʻia ma lalo o ka inoa ʻo "Anderson Carriage Company", a ma 1907 i hoʻomaka i ka hana ʻo "Anderson Electric Car Company". Aia ka hana ma ʻAmelika, ma ka mokuʻāina ʻo Michigan. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana, ua hoʻohana nā kaʻa kaʻa Detroit Electric i nā pākaukau lead-acid, i ia mau lā he kumu waiwai maikaʻi loa ia ma ke kumukūʻai kūpono. No nā makahiki he nui, no ka uku hou (ʻo ia hoʻi he $600), hiki i nā mea nona nā kaʻa ke hoʻokomo i kahi pākahi hao-nickel ikaika loa. A laila, ma kahi pākahi pākahi, hiki i ke kaʻa ke holo ma kahi o 130 mau kilomita, akā ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o nā helu maoli - a hiki i 340 mau kilomita. ʻO nā kaʻa "Detroit Electric" hiki ke piʻi i ka wikiwiki o ka 32 mau kilomita i kēlā me kēia hola. Eia naʻe, no ke kaʻa ʻana i ke kūlanakauhale i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia XNUMX, he hōʻailona maikaʻi loa kēia. ʻO ka pinepine, ua kūʻai ʻia nā kaʻa uila e nā wahine a me nā kauka. ʻAʻole i loaʻa i nā mea a pau nā koho me nā mīkini hoʻopau i loko, no ka mea, no ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ke kaʻa, pono e hoʻohana ʻia ka nui o ka hoʻoikaika kino. ʻO kēia ma muli o ka nani a me ka nani o nā hiʻohiʻona, he aniani curved, he kumukūʻai no ka hana ʻana. Ua hōʻea ka brand i kona kiʻekiʻe o ka kaulana i ka makahiki 1910, i ka wā i kūʻai aku ai ka hui mai 1 a 000 kope i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Eia kekahi, ʻo ke kumukūʻai nui o ka ʻaila, i piʻi ma hope o ke Kaua Honua Mua, he hopena i ka kaulana o nā kaʻa uila. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona Detroit Electric ʻaʻole i maʻalahi wale nō, akā kūpono hoʻi i ke ʻano o ka mālama. I kēlā mau lā, na John Rockefeller, Thomas Edison, a me Clara ka wahine a Henry Ford. I ka hope, ua hoʻolako ʻia kahi noho keiki kūikawā, kahi e hiki ai ke holo a hiki i ka wā ʻōpio. I kēia manawa i ka makahiki 1920, ua māhele ʻia ka hui i ʻelua ʻāpana. I kēia manawa ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā kino a me nā ʻāpana uila mai kekahi i kekahi, no laila ua kapa ʻia ka hui nui ʻo "The Detroit Electric Car Company". Liquidation and revival I ka makahiki 20, ua emi nui ke kumukūʻai o nā kaʻa me nā ʻenekini hoʻopau i loko, kahi i emi ai ka kaulana o nā kaʻa uila. Aia i ka makahiki 1929, ua emi loa ke kūlana me ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka Great Depression. A laila ʻaʻole i waiho ka hui i ka panakalupa. Ua hoʻomau ka poʻe limahana i ka hana me nā kauoha hoʻokahi wale nō, he kakaikahi ka nui. ʻAʻole a hiki i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka mākeke kūʻai o 1929 i pōʻino loa nā mea. Ua kūʻai ʻia ke kaʻa Detroit Electric hope loa i ka makahiki 1939, ʻoiai ua loaʻa nā hiʻohiʻona he nui a hiki i 1942. Ma ke ola holoʻokoʻa o ka hui, ua hana ʻia nā kaʻa uila 13. I kēia lā, hiki i nā kaʻa hana ʻole ke loaʻa ka laikini, ʻoiai ʻo ka wikiwiki o 32 mau kilomita i kēlā me kēia hola i manaʻo ʻia he haʻahaʻa loa. Hoʻohana wale ʻia lākou no nā mamao pōkole a i nā hihia liʻiliʻi, no ka mea, aia nā pilikia me ka hoʻololi ʻana i nā pā. ʻAʻole hoʻohana nā mea nona nā hiʻohiʻona iā lākou no nā hana pilikino, ʻoi aku ka pinepine i kūʻai ʻia ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o nā hōʻiliʻili a me kahi hōʻikeʻike hale hōʻikeʻike. I ka makahiki 2008, ua hoʻihoʻi ʻia ka hana o ka ʻoihana e ka hui ʻAmelika "Zap" a me ka hui Kina "Youngman". A laila hoʻolālā lākou e hana hou i nā kaʻa kaʻa, a ma 2010 e hoʻomaka i kahi hana piha. Ua hoʻomaka pū ka hana e hoʻonui i nā kūʻai aku o nā kaʻa uila hou, me nā sedans a me nā kaʻa. Ma 2016, ua ʻike ʻia kahi hiʻohiʻona o "Detroit Electric" ma ka mākeke ma ke ʻano "SP: 0". ʻO ke alanui kaʻa kaʻa ʻelua he mea hoʻonā hoihoi hou, me 999 mau kaʻa i hana ʻia: ʻo ka hāʻawi ʻana i kaupalena ʻia. Hiki ke ʻokoʻa ke kumukūʻai o ia mea hou mai 170 euros a 000 euros, ʻokoʻa paha ka nui ma muli o ka hoʻolālā ʻana o ke kaʻa, kona hoʻonaninani kūloko a me ka ʻāina kūʻai. Manaʻo ka poʻe akamai i ka "SP:0" ma ke ʻano he hoʻopukapuka maikaʻi, ʻoiai ua hiki iā ia ke lilo i kaʻao i loko o kekahi mau makahiki. He kaʻa pipiʻi kēia i loaʻa nā mea hoʻokūkū koʻikoʻi: Tesla, Audi, BMW a me Porsche Panamera kaʻa uila. ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia ke kūlana o kēia ʻoihana a ʻaʻohe nūhou ma ka pūnaewele mana mai 2017. Hōʻike ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Detroit Electric Aia kekahi mau kaʻa Detroit Electric ma ke alanui, akā ʻo ka hapa nui o ia mau mea he hale hōʻikeʻike wale nō i mea e mālama ai i nā mīkini a me nā pihi. Ma ka Edison Technology Center ma Schenectady, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kahi kaʻa uila hana piha a hoʻihoʻi hou ʻia, no ke Kulanui ʻo Union. Aia kekahi kope like ʻole ma Nevada, ma ka National Automobile Museum. Ua hana ʻia ia i ka makahiki 1904, a mai ia manawa ʻaʻole i hoʻololi ʻia nā pila i loko o ke kaʻa, ua noho pū ka Edison iron-nickel battery. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia kekahi mau kaʻa hou aʻe ma Brussels AutoWorld Museum, ma ka German Autovision a me ka Australian Motor Museum. Hiki i ke kūlana o nā kaʻa ke hoʻohauʻoli i ka poʻe malihini e like me ka mea hou.
