1913 Waverly Model 93 EV goes up for auction
Best of all, the 1913 Waverly Model 93 EV still shines like a new car and is capable of not only being maintained, but running on the road. The question may be why suddenly this car has come up in the news headlines? In answer to this, let us inform that the auction is being called for the sale of the car in August this year.

When cars were only used by the wealthy, the all-electric 1913 Waverly Model 93 EV was created. Its vintage design, however, gives an indication of its age. A US-based firm called Mecum Auctions will be auctioning the car.
No pricing information is available for the 1913 Waverly Model 93 EV. A woman from Virginia bought this car. This car was carefully kept by his family members for almost 100 years.
