The car is a ground vehicle driven by engine power, four or more wheels (still) usually turn on the motor. Using fossil fuels (petrol or diesel) Short car car derived from the Greek 'autos' (self) and Latin 'movere' (moving)

History 

The first car that works with steam probably first designed by Ferdinand Verbiest, about the year 1672 he designed the toy vehicle measuring 65 cm for Chinese kingdom, which has no passengers. It is not known if Verbiest made ​​car models ever produced or not.

In 1752, Leonty Shamshurenkov, a Russian national, building a human-powered vehicle. He also equip his vehicle with an odometer. Vehicle he looks like a sled made​​. 

The first steam-powered vehicle was demonstrated success in the late 18th century, Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot the three-wheeled vehicles in the year 1769 was the first vehicle using a power steam engine, steam engine can increase the best known, in Birmingham, England was developed by the Lunar Society. And in Birmingham was the first gasoline powered car made in Britain in 1896 by Frederick William Lanchester who also patented the disc brakes. In the 1890s, ethanol is used as an energy source in the United States. 

Popularity 

Seen in his native France, Cugnot discovery of low consumption and the findings forwarded to Britain, where Richard Trevithick runs a steam wagon in 1801. The vehicle is considered to be at first, but after the discovery of the decade strange such as hand brakes, multi-speed transmission, and increase the speed and the steering wheel, making it a success. 

Today, America has a lot more cars than in other countries. Japan leads in the production of cars, but the Japanese people can not afford to run a car because parking is scarce and expensive fuel 

Innovation 

The first automobile patent in the United States granted to Oliver Evans in 1789, in 1804 Evans demonstrated his first car, which was not only the first car in the United States, but also the first amphibious vehicle, the auto power-steam is able to travel on land and in the water wheels used wheels padel. 

Generally, the first car engine that uses gasoline made ​​almost simultaneously in 1886 by Jerman inventor which operating individually. Karl Benz on July 3, 1886 in Mannheim, and Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in Stuttgart. 

On November 5, 1895, George B. Selden granted United States patent for a two-stroke automobile engine. This patent gives a negative influence on the development of the automobile industry in the United States. Spectacular breakthrough made ​​by Berta Benz in 1888-the steam engine, electricity and gasoline competed for decades, with gasoline internal combustion engines achieving dominance in the 1910s. 

Production in large scale manufacturing of affordable cars made by Oldsmobile in 1902, and later developed a large scale by Henry Ford in the 1910s In the period from 1900 to the mid-1920s the development of automotive technology was growing rapidly, due the large number (hundreds) of small car manufacturers are all vying to grab attention of the world.

The most important development including electronic ignition and electronic self-starter (both by Charles Kettering, for the Cadillac Company in 1910-1911), independent suspension and brakes four tires. 

In the 1930's, mainly in the automotive technology is created, though often recreated at a later date and credit given to someone else. For example, the front wheel steering recreated by Andre Citroën Traction Avant in the launch in 1934, although this technology has a number of years previously created in cars by Alvis and Cord, and in racing cars published by Miller (and perhaps as early as published in 1897) . 

After 1930, the number of car manufacturers drastically reduced coincide by adding the business together and mature. Since 1960, the number of producers almost certain, and less innovation. In many ways the new technology only improvement over the previous technology. With exceptions in the discovery engine management, the market in the 1960's, introduced by electronic goods become cheap enough for mass production and strong enough for the harsh environment of the car can handle. Developed by Bosch, These electronic devices can make car exhaust drastically reduced, while increasing the efficiency and strength.
