@conoba Maybe you are right - it depends how you would define an automobile: Cugnot's vehicle was a gun carriage. Bozek's idea was closer to what we would understand as an automobile today.

Sorry but The "Fardier" of the French Engineer Cugnot was not in 1770 but in 1769 ^^
And yes of course the first automobile and the real first ancester of all Automobiles, cars and trains nowadays is well the Fardier of the French Engineer CUGNOT !! :-)

Cugnot was the first with a road steamer, an all American philadelphian, Oliver Evans was second, with building a harbor dredge, a scow hulled thing. He put wheels on it and a steering fore carriage and drove it around Philly for a couple of days before he drove it to a beach and launched it. Like Cugnot, he used high pressure steam , which Threvithick, when he saw it brought back to England.

At least he didn't cite Carl Benz. (Although I think that was poor old Carl's excuse for escaping his wife Bertha's complaining about the walk to the shops.)

First steam powered automobile? Nicolas Joseph Cugnot would disagree!

Hi wiegelfilm! Great slideshow!!!! I did'nt know this one!! With all due respect, Cugnot had the first steam car (tractor in 1770) and the Scotsman Threvethick (i hope I spelled it correctly) had one in 1803. However, I didn't know this one, and I thank you for uploading!
