The trolleybus dates back to 29 April 1882, when Ernst Werner Siemens demonstrated his "Elektromote" in a Berlin suburb. In the future, the electric vehicle was recognized all over the world.

From 1911 to 1914 in Germany, more advanced trolleybuses were used in comparison with the first model. However, they had only one trolley pole.
