/ˈməʊtəraɪzd//ˈməʊtəraɪzd/

The word "motorized" originated in the late 19th century from the Latin word "motor," meaning "movable" or "able to move." The term was first used to describe vehicles powered by internal combustion engines or electric motors. The word gained popularity in the early 20th century, particularly in the context of the automotive industry, as cars and trucks became more common. Initially, "motorized" referred specifically to vehicles that were powered by motors, as opposed to those that were horse-drawn. Over time, the term expanded to describe other modes of transportation, such as bicycles and scooters, that were powered by motors. Today, "motorized" is used to describe a wide range of vehicles, from scooters and skateboards to boats and even aircraft, that are powered by engines or motors.
