Artifact Overview

This image from a 1916 issue of The Horseless Age shows a cutaway version of the Woods Gasoline-Electric car. You can see the batteries under the driver's seat and the engine and gas tank in the front. The Woods Dual-Power vehicle supposedly combined the best of both. Customers, however, had other ideas and the car and company disappeared in 1918.
