First front wheel drive vehicle was Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot's 1769 French gun carriage (steam-driven) and others were produced before Sutton's. Morris & Salom build a FWD electric in Philadelphia in 1894/96. George B. Selden's 1895 patent design was designed as a FWD. Ferdinand Porsche's first car was an electric FWD built in 1899.
