In the late 1890's, Nikola Tesla perfected his large resonance transformer magnifying transmitter. Soon after, Tesla deployed an array of the transmitters, supplying power to homes and businesses nation wide.

In a moment of inspiration, Tesla brought one of his previous inventions, the AC induction motor, into a booming new market; automobiles. With the combination of wireless power and an automobile powered by it, Nikola Tesla brought to market the ultimate automobile, the "Unlimited Range Tesla".
