Electraph was a French automobile manufacturer founded by racing driver Raphael Bethenod in Cannes during the early 1940s. The company operated from 1942 until approximately 1944, a brief period marked by the production of innovative electric vehicles.

The Electraph 225 was the primary model produced by the company. This electric coupé featured an aerodynamic body designed by Brandome, which contributed to its efficiency and performance. The vehicle was notable for its impressive range of 130 miles (205 kilometers) at an average speed of 25 miles per hour (40 kilometers per hour).

During its short production run, Electraph manufactured around 40 units of the Electraph 225. Despite its limited output, the model represented an early attempt to integrate electric propulsion into automotive design during a time when the industry was predominantly focused on internal combustion engines.
