The EV Guys: How Caltech Engineers Reinvented the Electric Car is the true account of the auto industry outsiders whose electric drivetrain revolutionized the automobile. Starting from their early years at Caltech, the book chronicles their development of an electric car faster than any Ferrari or Corvette. It then recounts how the founders of Tesla Motors stumbled onto their technology, adopted it, and used it as a foundation for the birth of what would become one of the world's most valuable companies. The EV Guys breaks new ground in its depiction of the electric car's history, and is the first book to explain how a small group of engineers in a California garage reinvented the EV and forever changed the auto industry.
