  3. First successful car! • In 1769 Cugnot and Brezin invented the first successful car !

  4. French milit French military engineer ary engineer • In 1769 Nicolas Cugnot, a French military engineer developed a steam powered road-vehicle for the French army to haul heavy cannons. • Using a steam engine fixed to a three-wheeled cart, Cugnot successfully converted the back-and-forth action of a steam piston into rotary motion. • The truck reputedly reached walking speed and carried four tones. The army later abandoned his invention.

  5. First horseless carriage • In 1801 ‘road locomotive’ - known as the Puffing Devil – was the first horseless carriage to transport passengers. Innovations like hand brakes, gears, and steering improvements were developed in subsequent decades.

It was fuelled by coal gas and triggered by an electric spark-ignition. • Lenoir later attached an improved engine to a three-wheeled wagon and completed a fifty-mile road trip.
