From 1880, Gustave Trouv\u00e9 improved the efficiency of a small electric motor developed by Siemens. He used a rechargeable battery, then recently developed, to power the engine and installed it on an English James Starley tricycle, so inventing the world\u2019s first electric vehicle. Although this was successfully tested on April 19, 1881, along the Rue Valois in central Paris, he was unable to patent it. Gustave Trouv\u00e9 swiftly adapted his battery-powered motor to marine propulsion; to facilitate the transportation of his marine propulsion system between his workshop and the River Seine, Trouv\u00e9 made it portable and removable from the boat, thus inventing the outboard engine. On May 26, 1881, the 5m Trouv\u00e9 boat prototype, called “Le T\u00e9l\u00e9phone” reached a speed of 1 m\/s (3,6 km\/h) going upstream et 2,5 m\/s (9 km\/h) downstream. Gustave Trouv\u00e9 exhibited his boat (but not his tricycle) and his electro-medical instruments at the International Electrical Exhibition in Paris and soon after was awarded the L\u00e9gion d’Honneur. He also miniaturized his electric motor to power a model airship, a dental drill, a sewing machine and a razor.
