Car is one vehicle that is driven by the power of the engine, this vehicle has four wheels there are even some that have more than four wheels. Cars use fuel such as gasoline or diesel fuel to be able to turn it on. The first car was invented by Nicolas - Joseph Cugnot who came from France in 1769. Cugnot At that time trying to make cars using steam mensin. Because steam engines have evolved more rapidly, then the car before moving to the steam engine now developed by a moving car with fuel oil could be found by Benz in 1879.
The development of automotive technology is growing very rapidly in the period 1900 to mid-1920. In the 1930s, mostly in automotive technology have been created, though often re-created at a later date and given credit to someone else. For example, the front-wheel steering recreated by Andre Citroën Traction Avant in the launch in 1934, although this technology has appeared several years earlier in cars made by Alvis and Cord, and in racing cars by Miller (and may have appeared as early as 1897 ). After 1930, the number of automobile manufacturers drastically reduced berpasan with industry join together and mature. Since 1960, the number of producers is almost fixed, and reduced innovation.
Cars have two basic safety problems, where drivers often make mistakes and lose tire friction when braking close to half of gravity. Early research focused on improving the brakes and reduce the fire hazard fuel system. Systematic research in crash safety started in 1958 at Ford Motor Company. Since then, much research focused on energy absorption outside with panels that easily destroyed and reduce human movement in the passenger compartment. The car also is one of the important means of land transportation at the present time. Having a car for the majority of society today like a basic thing which can help them in activities, especially in the work. Therefore, automakers race - the race to create cars with different advantages and strengths so that the number of cars in the market are many and varied.
