Automotive history
Automobile patented in 1886 by Karl Benz first car manufactured with internal combustion engine.The history of the car starts with self-propelled steam eighteenth century. In 1885 he created the first motor vehicle internal combustion gasoline. It is divided into a series of stages marked by major technological milestones.

Motor vapor Cugnot Version 1771.Replica of Richard Trevithick's locomotive, 1801.Cugnot Nicolas-Joseph (1725-1804), mechanical, military engineer, writer and French inventor, made the big step, to build a steam car, originally designed to tow artillery pieces. The Fardi, as he called Cugnot began to circulate through the streets of Paris in 1769. It was riding a tricycle on the front wheel a boiler and a two-cylinder vertical and 50 liters of displacement, the front wheel tractor and guideline was to turn the two cylinders working directly on it. In 1770 he built a second model, larger than the first, and could drag 4'5 tons at a speed of 4 km / h. This version was produced which could be considered 'first car accident' of history, to be impossible, the correct handling of monumental vehicle, which ended up crashing into a wall that collapsed the result of the accident. Cugnot still had time to build a third version in 1771, which remains exposed today in the National Technical Museum in Paris.
In 1784 William Murdoch built a model steam carriage and in 1801 Richard Trevithick drove a vehicle in Camborne (United Kingdom) .1 In these early vehicles were developed such innovations as hand brakes, and wheel speeds.

In 1815 Josef Bozek, built an engine car powered by aceite.2 Walter Hancock in 1838, Robert Davidson built an electric locomotive which reached 6 km per hour. Between 1832 and 1839 Robert Anderson invented the first car driven by non-rechargeable electric cells.
Belgian Etienne Lenoir was run a car with internal combustion engine around 1860, powered by coal gas.
Around 1870, in Vienna, inventor Siegfried Marcus was operated internal combustion engine fuel base, known as the "First Marcus Car". In 1883, Marcus patented a system of low-voltage ignition system introduced in subsequent models.
It is commonly accepted that the first automobiles with gasoline were developed almost simultaneously by German engineers working independently: Karl Benz built his first model in 1885 in Mannheim. Benz patented it on January 29, 1886 and began producing in 1888. Soon after, Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in Stuttgart, designed their own car in 1889.
