The world's first car was a three-wheeled chain-driven internal combustion engine vehicle. Here is some relevant information about the world's first car: 1. The world's first car: Karl Benz invented the first three-wheeled chain-driven internal combustion engine car in Germany in 1886. In 1886, Karl Benz of Germany manufactured the world's first gasoline-powered three-wheeled car, which was patented on January 29 of the same year. 2. Brief introduction to the performance of the first car: The car was equipped with a horizontal single-cylinder two-stroke gasoline engine with a displacement of 785cc, producing 0.89 horsepower and capable of traveling 15 kilometers per hour. The car had small front wheels and large rear wheels, with the engine placed above the rear axle, and power was transmitted to the rear wheels via chains and gears. This car already featured some basic characteristics of modern cars, such as electric ignition, water cooling circulation, a steel tube frame, leaf spring suspension, rear-wheel drive, front-wheel steering, and a brake handle. Its rack-and-pinion steering mechanism is considered the ancestor of modern car steering systems.
