The document summarizes the history and development of automobiles from the first steam-powered car built by Joseph Cugnot in 1769 to modern cars with computer-controlled systems. It notes key developments like the first internal combustion engine (Jean Joseph Étienne Lenoir), four-cylinder engine (Nikolaus August Otto), four-wheeled automobile (Gottlieb Daimler), and Model T (Henry Ford). Over time, cars gained new technologies, styles evolved between World Wars, and computer chips now control many systems. Top modern brands include Toyota, Volkswagen, Mercedes, and BMW.

1. The History
The
first car was built by Joseph Cugnot
in 1769. It was powered by a steam
engine and was very slow.
 Jean Joseph Étienne Lenoir was the first
to build the one cylinder engine, internalcombustion engine, was later patent.
Nikolaus August Otto built the first four
cylinder engine.
 In 1886 Gottlieb Daimler designed the
first four wheeled automobile. They also
created the first v-slanted engine.

4. The History
Karl
Benz, know as one of the founders of
Mercedes-Benz, is the first to build an
automobile powered by an internal
combustion engine.
Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach
with Benz’s manufacturing firm in 1926 to
create Daimler-Benz. The joint company
makes cars today under the Mercedes-Benz
nameplate, and Daimler Chrysler
Henry Ford, a famous car company founder,
designed the world’s biggest car
manufacturer, manufacturing over 15 million
Model Ts by 1927

7. The History
Hybrid
cars have also been around since
the 1900’s.
In the 1900’s Ford made more steam and
electric cars than it did gasoline.
The first hybrid commercial truck was
built in 1910, and as the gasoline engine
was refined interest in hybrids died down.
As problems with environment and gas
process continue, Hybrids are now a hot
commodity in the market place and are
now the new wave of future cars

8. 20th Century and Years upon
In
the 1920’s they started to evolve and
install synchromesh transmissions for
easier gear shifting; four-wheel hydraulic
brake systems; improved carburetors;
shatterproof glass; balloon tires; heaters;
and mechanically operated windshield
wipers
In the 1930s car engines and bodies
became large and luxurious.

9. 20th Century and Years upon
Two
styles were created during the time of
World War II, European and American. The
European style was compact and small. They
liked their cars to be lightweight and small unlike
the American style. Their cars were made of
mostly aluminum and the chassis and framework
was made of steel. The American style was the
opposite of what the European style. The cars
were big and spacious inside, because Americans
liked to be comfortable while driving. Their cars
were made with more power, smooth riding and
stability, power steering, and power brakes.

10. 20th Century and Years upon
Between
the 1950’s and 1960’s American
manufacturers started making smaller cars,
but their engine size and horsepower
increased.
By the 1980’s Technology started to grow in
America because of new Japanese
innovations and imports.
As the 21st century progressed, cars
improve and computer technology began to
be utilized in cars. Cars today are now
mostly controlled by computer chips.

11. 20th Century and Years upon (cont.)
The
computer chip manages most of the car
systems today. For instance, the anti-lock brake
system is controlled by a computer chip telling,
them when to work.
They also have GPS systems in cars that help
provide directions and guides drivers. Some cars
now come equipped with GPS locator beacons,
enabling a GPS system operator to locate the
vehicle, map its location, and if necessary, direct
repair or emergency workers to the scene.
Cars are now made of lighter materials that are
quite very strong.
