An automobile is a mechanical vehicle comprising various components that work together to facilitate its movement. Cars are widely recognized as one of the most common modes of transportation in today's society.
There are various categories of cars, including compact personal vehicles predominantly owned by individuals for commuting or family transportation, as well as large buses utilized for public transit. Additionally, there are substantial trucks used for transporting goods, playing a crucial role in advancing economies alongside railways in industrialized nations.
Cars are powered by engines, with their origins tracing back to the late 18th century when Joseph Nicholas Cugnot created the first motorized vehicle model in 1769. These vehicles move on wheels and possess their own engines, serving the purpose of transporting passengers or cargo.
As of 2002, there were an estimated 590 million passenger cars globally, equating to roughly one car for every eleven individuals worldwide. The United States accounted for 140 million of these cars, approximately one car for every two Americans, with a similar ratio observed in Western European countries.
The European Union has recently implemented measures to reduce gasoline and diesel consumption in cars by 2020, aiming to limit carbon dioxide emissions to 95 grams per kilometer. This target translates to around 4 liters of fuel consumed per 100 kilometers. European automakers are actively enhancing engine technologies and exploring hybrid vehicles to meet these stringent emission standards. The US and China are anticipated to adopt similar strategies in the future, with European car manufacturers leading the way in this eco-friendly initiative.
