At the end of the 19th century bicycles and carriages were the main means of transport both in the city and in the countryside. For long journeys the train is available while the car is still a luxury item, it is a novelty. Research is still available in this new field. After the first prototype of the vehicle, the Cugnot carriage, powered by steam built by a French engineer in 1769,. Many different solutions are experimented with to give shape to the possibility of moving faster and individually. In particular, it is about developing an efficient technological solution for engines. During the 19th century, patents followed each other quickly. The stages were marked in particular by two German engineers, Nicolaus Otto, who built the internal combustion engine in 1876, and Rudolf Diesel, who in 1892 improved this technology into a type of engine, named after its inventor. In those years they designed engines with sails, steam or electric, but it was necessary to wait until the first decade of the 1900s for the example of another German engineer, Carl Benz, who in 1886 built a vehicle equipped with an internal combustion engine, paving the way for the gasoline engine. In 1893 Benz launched the Victoria model on the market, selling a hundred units in a few years. The first version is already equipped with an axle with which the direction of travel could be changed, reaches 20 km/h and is available in several body styles. , the first noteworthy example of a car is the work of an Italian named Enrico Bernardi from Verona. It is a four-wheeled car, innovative, patented in 1894, the year in which the first Italian automotive industry was born. La miarie Giusti, 5 years later Fiat appeared. Also at the end of the 1800s, for demonstration and advertising purposes, the first car race in the world, Parigi Rowen, was born, whose tradition continues today. In the first edition, in 1894, over 100 drivers registered, some with gasoline cars, others with DIESEL or steam cars, such as this tractor that participated. Starting from the first period after the war, the car became a cheaper means of transportation, cars could be bought by people belonging to the less wealthy classes and consequently, the roads began to become crowded, due primarily to the launch of mass production launched by Henry Ford at his factory in Detroit, the assembly line combined with the conveyor belt reduces production times and, therefore, costs. Henry Ford had designed his first car in 1896. We see it in these images driven by Henry Ford with his wife. The model is called a simple quadricycle and consists of a gasoline engine mounted on a frame equipped with four bicycle wheels. Two years later, in 1898, Ford founded his first company, the Detroit Automobile Company, followed in 1903 by the Ford Moto Company. A year earlier, he attracted the attention of the financial and sports world by launching a victorious racing car model. called the 999, capable of reaching 150 km/h, became a symbol of the idea of ​​speed in the early 1900s. The first car intended for series production is the 2-cylinder model A built from 1903 onwards, capable of reaching 70 km/h In two years Ford sells more than 1700 units. After other models, Ford's success is called the Model T, not so much for the car itself, simple and maneuverable, as for the idea of ​​applying the new rhythm of the assembly line to its production. So, if in the first year of production, IN 1908, only 11 Model T cars were rolled out of the gate Six years later 93 minutes were enough to assemble a Model T. It is estimated that in total, between 1908 and 1927, when production of this type of car ceased, 15 million were produced. With the First World War, the technology developed by Ford is also used in the military field. In these images we can see the preparation of a submarine, a model desired by the US Navy to counter German submarines. Henry Ford, collaborating with the American government, helped not only in the construction of submarines but also in the construction of airplanes. Henry Ford retired from business at the end of the war in 1945, dying two years later.
