A: The 1960 Plymouth Valiant.

The Valiant introduced the alternator to the automotive public, as it was the first car to offer one over a generator. The advantages of alternators were not widely appreciated, but they were - and are - very significant. First, alternators weight about 10 pounds less than generators, saving weight and bracketry. More importantly, alternators charge at idle, something generators couldn't do, and that meant no more dead batteries when cars idled in heavy traffic at night, particularly in snowstorms.
