Eaton [2] (United States) - AllCarIndex

Eaton Electric Motor Carriage Company was established in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1898. The company focused on the production of electric vehicles during the late 19th century, a period marked by the early development of automotive technology. In 1898, Eaton Electric Motor Carriage Company showcased a light two-seater electric car at the Mechanics’ Fair in Boston, highlighting its commitment to innovation in electric mobility.

In 1899, the company underwent a name change to Eaton Motor Carriage Company, which suggested a potential shift in focus away from exclusively electric vehicles. However, there is no documented evidence that the company produced any other types of cars beyond its initial electric model. A small number of these electric vehicles were reportedly exported to London, but overall production remained limited, and the company ceased operations shortly thereafter, around 1900.
