Which of those 30k was mass produced? The model t was seen as the first mass produced vehicle. I think when it obtained that classification it was producing around 200k annually.


EV1 had 1,117 units produced according to Wiki, so I guess any model of those 30k with more than that would count.

Edit: apparently Columbia built 1,937 electric cars in 1904 alone according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_(automobile_brand).


The answer is probably more in the middle in that mass produced places more emphasis on the standardization. I imagine those Columbia cars were not build on an assembly line.
