A motor car by Carl Benz from 1885. In 1885 Carl Friedrich Benz built the first car in Mannheim with a four-stroke engine and called it the Velocipede. Benz handled the problem of the steering through the construction of a three-wheel vehicle. The car has one wheel in the front, so a transmission of the steering over the axis falls out.
