The Invention of the Automobile An automobile, or car, is a wheeled vehicle that carries its own motor and transports passengers. The automobile as we know it was not invented in a single day by a single inventor. In 1769, the French engineer Nicolas-Joseph Cagnon devised the first self-propelled road vehicle, a military tractor powered by a steam engine. One year later, Cagnon built a steam-driven tricycle that could carry four passengers, but steam engines were very heavy and they proved a poor design for road vehicles. Around 1830, the Scotsman Robert Anderson built the first electric carriage. Both steam and electric road vehicles were soon abandoned in favour of petrol-powered vehicles. In 1876, Nicolaus August Otto built the first practical four-stroke internal combustion engine. In an internal combustion engine, the fuel is burnt inside the engine, while in a steam engine, the fuel is burnt outside. The most common internal combustion engine type is petrol-powered. The first petrol-powered vehicles were developed by Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz. In 1885, Karl Benz designed the first three-wheeler powered by an internal combustion engine. In 1891, Benz built the first four-wheeler. The first automobile to be mass-produced in the USA was the 1901 curved-dashed Oldsmobile built by Ransom L.E. Odds. Odds devised the basic concept of the assembly line and started the Detroit-area automobile industry. Henry Ford installed the first conveyor belt-based assembly line in his car factory in Michigan in 1913. The assembly line reduced production costs for cars by reducing assembling time. Ford's famous Model T was assembled in 93 minutes. The Ford Motor Company was launched in 1903, and by 1927, 15 million Model Ts have been manufactured. The modern era of automobiles had begun. The assembly line During the period known as the Industrial Revolution (1760-1850) machines changed people’s lives as well as their methods of manufacturing. Most products people in the industrialized nations use today are manufactured by the process of mass production, that is by people and robots that use power-driven machines. Through the use of mass pro-duction methods and the assembly line, a larger amount of goods can be produced in a given period of time, usually at a lower cost.The assembly line developed at the Ford Motor Com-pany in 1913 had immense influence on the automo-tive industry and on other industrial branches. Henry Ford, founder of the company, had built his first car in 1896 and was unique among automobile inventors. In Ford’s early assembly line, cars were pulled by rope from one worker to the next. This new technique allowed individual workers to stay in one place and perform the same task repeatedly on vehi-cles as they passed by. This reduced production timeby about one-half. Ford later employed the use of conveyor belts to move the parts down the line.
Hello Chuxing, one of China’s top bike-sharing platforms backed by ecommerce giant Alibaba Group Holding, has applied to go public on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Launched in 2016, Hello Chuxing gained traction quickly as the first bikesharing operator to focus its business within China’s smaller cities and towns. It managed to survive China’s bike-sharing bubble between 2017 and 2018 when Ofo went into bankruptcy and Mobike was acquired by Meituan. The “survivor” had more than 10 million bicycles operating in over 400 Chinese cities as of December 2020. Hello Chuxing is developing its new business aggressively. In 2019, it took on sector leader Didi Chuxing with a new business Hello Dache that provides car-sharing and carpooling services. It has also been following industry giant Meituan into the life services field with new “intra-city logistics” and “bulk buying” services. The service, Hello Dache, features instant communication that enables passengers to keep in touch with drivers online once ride requests have been accepted. It also features a one-click button to call the police as part of efforts to boost safety. It is now looking into travel, with the aim of being a travel-based platform that provides daily life services, a person familiar with the matter said. “The market was too lavish when capital players and consumers were optimistic about the sector,” founder Yang Lei said back in 2019. “Firms would burn through cash subsidies to keep up with rivals and maintain a rapid pace of expansion. Hello Chuxing, however, has been careful to watch every penny and use money wisely while planning for the future,” he said.
