1 gen 1901 anni - FIRST MODERN MOTOCAR - Mercedes

Descrizione:

By Wilhelm Maybach for Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft.

It was composed by a thirty-five-horsepower engine that weighed only fourteen pounds per horsepower, and it achieved a top speed of fifty-three miles per hour.

The great achievement germans made was putting within reach of middle-class Americans;
however, the central problem of automotive technology over the first decade of the twentieth century would be reconciling the advanced design of the 1901 Mercedes with the moderate price and low operating expenses of the Olds.
This would be overwhelmingly an American achievement.
