Some Words about Motor vehicles in General:

The hydrogen powered FCHV (Fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicle) was developed by Toyota in 2005.
Most modern gasoline engines are also capable of running with up to 15% ethanol mixed into the gasoline - older vehicles may have seals and hoses that can be harmed by ethanol. Many diesel powered cars can also run with little or no modifications on 100% biodiesel. Because they can deliver a high torque at low revolutions electric cars do not require such a complex drive train and transmission as internal combustion powered cars.

The Story of the Automobile:

In 1892, German engineer Rudolf Diesel got a patent for a “New Rational Combustion Engine”. In 1879 Benz was granted a patent for his first engine, designed in 1878. Indirect fuel injection was first used in aircraft engines from 1909, in racing car engines from the 1930s, and road cars from the late 1950s. Daimler died in 1900 and later that year, Maybach designed a model named Daimler-Mercedes, special-ordered by Emil Jellinek.

General Motor vehicle Safety:

This makes clear the often-ignored fact road design and traffic control also play a part in car wrecks; unclear traffic signs, inadequate signal light placing, and poor planning (curved bridge approaches which become icy in winter, for example), also contribute. Collisions can have very serious or fatal consequences. Systematic research on crash safety started in 1958 at Ford Motor Company.
