The birth of the automobile is most often dated to January 29th, 1886 when Carl Benz patented an 'automobile fueled by gas.' Its launch was problematic since gas was sold only in small quantities from pharmacies as a cleaning product. And because the car had no gears, it could not climb hills unaided. This Benz Patent Motor Wagen is an exact replica produced by John Bentley Engineering.
