The first car is invented
Austrian Karl Benz invented the first true automobile in the 19th century. It was powered by an internal combustion engine and had three wheels. Any previous attempts to invent cars used steam power - and didn’t have much success. -
Car radio
The first car stereo was created in 1930 in monophonic AM frequency. For the first time, driving could be set to music, though it would be another 22 years before the first radio capable of receiving FM frequency was added to a car, in 1952. -
Car key
Looking for a better way to get the car running, Chrysler invented a technology to start both the electric starter and the ignition. It placed this power inside a key and soon everyone was using one.
