In 1903, the first U.S. patent for an automobile electric self-starter was issued to Clyde J. Coleman of New York City. He invented the self-starter in 1899, but the invention was impractical.
The license was purchased by the Delco Company, which was taken over by the General Motors Corporation. Charles Kettering at General Motors modified the self-starter, and made it practical. It was first installed on Cadillac cars in 1911. By 1920, nearly every car had a self-starter.
