It is unknown whom exactly, invented the automobile. DaVinci had a working model of a spring-powered automobile in the 15th century. Yes, and also the French during the times of Napoleonic wars (military vehicle). The first, American automobile was invented in Hinsdale, New Hampshire, USA, by George A. Long. This 1875 vehicle is only attested by local newspaper accounts and his, testimony. However, Long was awarded U.S.P.O. patent number: 281,091 on May 10, 1883 (pre-dating Benz) for his second automobile. Long's second and patented version, is residing in the Smithsonian's collection as not only the oldest automobile (Steam Road Vehicle), but the oldest, self-propelled vehicle of any type.

The earliest known steam-powered car was finished as early as 1769 by French inventor Nicolas Cugnot. But when it comes to vehicles powered by the internal combustion engine, then Carl Benz is given credit for actually building one. Benz championed the new internal-combustion engines, and he worked single-minded to create a car driven by one. He built a little three-wheeled car in 1885 and sold his first one two years later. He went into production with a four-wheeled model in 1890, and the Mercedes-Benz company is still with us. But Benz wasn't first. The French inventor de Rochas built an auto, and an engine to drive it, in 1862.

first propelled road vehicle

The first propelled road vehicle was made in 1769 by a french man named Nicolas cugnot.

the steam powered car was invented in 1769 by a guy named....... Nicholas Cugnot...SO he made the first car technically.

AnswerThe first automobile was 1894, in the U.S., made by Ransom E. Olds.

( Oldsmobile, R.E.O.) I think the first auto ever invented was a Benz, later to become Mercedes-Benz. I think it was 1893-4.

This car only had three, bicycle wheels, one horsepower, one cylinder, and it had a rutter to steer it. this was later improved and giver four wheels by the british.
