The first reliable streetcars were powered by electricity, introduced by Frank Sprague in 1887. This innovation allowed for cleaner and more efficient urban transportation, marking a shift from horse-drawn vehicles. Cities rapidly adopted electric streetcars, which facilitated the growth of streetcar suburbs and changed urban landscapes.
