BE AMBITIOUS
In the mid seventieth
century, when the quest for an automatic moving kiosk-called-car (vehicle)
became of utmost importance to the human society; there became series of trials
from people (inventors) from all auto-designers and automakers alike.
Firstly, in 1872, a car
powered by steam as the first attempt was invented by Ferdinald Verbiest; who was an experimentalist and a missionary
[sent] to China. Hence, gave birth to the first human ever attempted automobile
production in China.
In 1876, there was an
improvement to what Verbiest invented
– this time it was a self-propelled car (a three wheeler) designed by Nicholas Cugnot).
Francois, Isaac Rivas,
a Swiss inventor; [He] designed an invented the first ever car with an internal
combustion engine—though, the car was fueled with a mixture of oxygen +
Hydrogen. Francois car was invented in 1806; but didn’t succeed the test of
time.
According to Alexander
Pope; “A little learning is a dangerous thing”. In 1881, Gustave
Frouve designed and invented the first ever car powered by electricity, which
was demonstrated at an international Exhibition of Electricity in Paris—according
to the law of life, ‘change is inevitable’, hence his invention failed to
satisfy the demand for the use of automobiles worldwide; most especially in
less developed countries as ours in the African sub-region to be specific.
