A car is a non-track vehicle powered by power and has four or more wheels.
From the official birth of the automobile to the end of the 19th century, the story that happened is far more exciting than imagined.
On January 29, 1886, two Germans, Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler, obtained the patent for the world's first car, marking its birth. Mercedes-Benz One adopts a three-wheel setting, with small front and large rear wheels. It is equipped with a horizontal single-cylinder four-stroke gasoline engine with a displacement of 785CC, 0.89 horsepower, and a maximum speed of 15km/h.
Although the engine makes a lot of noise when working, the quality of the chain that transmits power is not good enough and often breaks. But the Mercedes-Benz One already has some basic features of modern cars, such as electric ignition, water-cooling circulation, steel tube frame, leaf spring suspension, rear-wheel drive, front-wheel steering, and brake handle.
In addition, there is a good story about promoting the recognition of automobiles. To respond to public opinion's ridicule of the unreliability of Mercedes-Benz One, in August 1888, Berta, the wife of Mercedes-Benz, drove her two sons from Mannheim in a car that had been repeatedly improved by Mercedes-Benz, passing through Wiesloch to refuel and refuel.
Driving directly to her parents' hometown of Pforzheim, the 144-kilometer journey was stumbling, but it played an excellent role in promoting the car. In the same year, the Mercedes-Benz No. 1 was launched. Because of this incident, the tall image of the world's first female driver still shines brightly.
<h3>Major events in 1890 (including the birth of the first car in France)
Daimler AG is founded</h3>
The Vero brand car produced by the German Benz Company first began to use rubber pneumatic tires. The Vero brand passenger car (1894) was famous in the early days of the Benz Company.
Armand Peugeot purchased a Daimler engine through Panhard & Levassol. He used this 0.6L twin-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 2 horsepower to create the Peugeot brand's first gasoline-powered model, the Type 2, in 1890. The car adopts a rear-mounted rear-wheel drive layout and can reach a top speed of 18km/h.
<h3>Major events in 1892 (including the birth of Britain’s first car)</h3>
German engineer Diesel developed a compression-ignition diesel engine based on the constant-pressure thermal power cycle principle and obtained the patent right to manufacture such an engine.
Peugeot was the first to use hard rubber tires on four-wheel vehicles, significantly improving ride comfort. Frederick William Bremer, a descendant of German immigrants, built the first car powered by an internal combustion engine and named the car after his surname. In 1965, Bremer Cars participated in the classic car race from London to Brighton, completing the 87km race in 7 hours and 55 minutes.
<h3>Major events in 1893 (including the birth of the first automobile in the United States)</h3>
<h3>The world's first car license plates and driving licenses are issued in France.</h3>
The 1893 Chicago World's Fair influenced an entire generation of Americans. Ford, then 30 years old, took the train to broaden his horizons. Ford built the first experimental car in his backyard three years later in the spring.
From being inconvenient to traveling to being able to go at a moment's notice, the development of the transportation industry has brought a real sense of gain to the people. With the continuous improvement of the global economic development level and the further improvement of transportation infrastructure, people's transportation will be safer, more convenient, and more comfortable in the future, and their lives will be happier and better.
