In a world where speed limits and traffic jams are the norm, let’s take a nostalgic ride back to December 18, 1898, when Gaston Laubat set the first recorded land speed record. Picture this: an electric car named “Jeantaud,” not exactly lightning-fast by today’s standards, yet it blazed its way to a dazzling 39.245 mph in Acheres, France. That’s right, folks—Laubat’s electric marvel was the Tesla of its time, minus the autopilot and Elon Musk tweets.

Initially a two-door coupe, its success led to a hardtop version later that year.
