  • 110 Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First
    110Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First Car In 1897, successful German-born businessman Emil Jellinek bought his first car from genius inventor Gottlieb Daimler. He became an enthusias- tic fan of the automobile, took part in the earliest motor races, and quickly became the largest distributor of Daimler cars. A few months after Herr Daimler's death in 1900, Jellinek persuaded the management of the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft to have its chief designer, legendary and visionary engineer Wilhelm Maybach, build a fast, lightweight Emil Jellinek didn't only love Daimler cars; he also and safe car. Jellinek also made a second sugges- doted on his daughter, Mercédès. tion: the new car should bear the name of his daughter, Mercédès, who was then ten years old. And what a new car it was. More advanced than any other of the time, there's no disputing that it set the pattern for all that was to come for many decades. Essentially, it defined the car as we know it today. Of course, during the previous 15 years since Karl Benz had patented his three-wheeler, all sorts of contraptions, both European and American, had been produced that proved capable of moving under their own power, more or less, but none but the 1901 Mercedes deserved billing as "The This example of the first Mercedes was owned by U.S. World’s First Modern Automobile."

  • Mobile Stuttgart Many Ways Lead Through the Stuttgart Region
    Press Release (Auto)Mobile Stuttgart Many ways lead through the Stuttgart Region Stuttgart is known as the cradle of the automobile. In 1883 Gottlieb Daimler invented the first fast-running, light engine for universal use, laying the cornerstone for its further development. And in the present day, too, the theme of mobility is still a key issue for Stuttgart's inhabitants in many different ways: The Mercedes-Benz Museum and the Porsche Museum have made the state capital a mecca for automobile enthusiasts from all over the world. Locals and visitors alike use many different means of transport each day, and learn about the history of mobility in various museums and during the tours offered by the Stuttgart-Marketing GmbH. At the "i-Punkt" Tourist Information there's also the so- called "m-Punkt" – the city of Stuttgart's mobility advisory service, which provides tips for residents and tourists on the most convenient mode of travel and the best route. In addition to its excellent ÖPNV public transport network, Stuttgart also scores with a wide range of electrically-powered transportation and sharing schemes, including cars, bikes or scooters. Why not hire an E-scooter to travel from one highlight to the next? Highlights Gottlieb Daimler's Birthplace The first fast-running, light engine for universal use was developed by Gottlieb Daimler, a baker's son who was born in 1834 in a half-timbered house in Schorndorf, near Stuttgart. Daimler's birthplace was acquired and restored by the Daimler-Benz AG and is today a museum and conference venue. Here, fans of this automobile pioneer will find treasures such as the legendary postcard sent by Gottlieb Daimler to his first wife, or his journeyman's piece.

  • The Trojan Horse: Imported Automobiles
    CHAPTER 5 suggested citation: Medrano-Bigas, Pau. The Forgotten Years of Bibendum. Michelin’s American Period in Milltown: Design, Illustration and Advertising by Pioneer Tire Companies (1900-1930). Doctoral dissertation. University of Barcelona, 2015 [English translation, 2018]. THE TROJAN HORSE: IMPORTED AUTOMOBILES In the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the furor for bicycles as a personal and economical means of transport led to the invasion of the French market by English and American firms—leading to fierce commercial competition with the country’s own industries—resulting in the collapse of 1898. In the early stages of the new century the full development of the European automobile industry and in particular the French sector—with the inseparable development of the tire—produced a similar effect. However, this time it was the American market that was invaded by imported European vehicles, pre- dominantly from France. 1. Transatlantic travel on wheels Between 1890 and 1891 the first French vehicles marketed by Peugeot—one of the major bicycle manu- facturers—and Panhard et Levassor, appeared on the scene and incorporated the internal combustion engine developed by the German Gottlieb Daimler. French and German investments in technology, which would be imposed on the rest, was based on gasoline-powered engines and collided with the English and North American options, diversified between vapor, electric and gas-powered automobiles. Production data from the United States in 1899 show that there were 2,500 vehicles—about 80% of which used electric or steam engines—manufactured by around 30 companies. Between 1900 and 1901, France was by far the world’s largest automobile producer.

  • The Riley One-Point-Five Sports Sedan by Rick Feibusch
    The Riley One-Point-Five Sports Sedan By Rick Feibusch The late 1950's imported car boom in America was fueled by dozens of mechanically interesting and unusual cars that were brought to us from all over the world. American car buyers had gone through the car famine of the war-torn Forties, the reintroduction of outdated prewar models, and the plethora of new cars from US manufacturers, starting with the Studebaker in mid-1946 through the revolutionary Chevy V8s in 1955. One thing was cl ear, American cars were generally getting bigger, faster and flashier by the day. The British had opened the imported car market in the States years before Japanese or European manufacturing firms had recovered from the hostilities. The jaunty MGs, awe i nspiring Jaguars and economical Austins, Hillmans and Morris Minors had demonstrated to America that there was an alternative to the oversized, overpowered and rocket ship styled domestic offerings. Foreign car sales started to climb and actually take of f once cars from Europe and Scandinavia appeared on our shores. By 1957, the numbers had become big enough to alarm the usually lethargic Detroit to a point that the big three had “import fighting” compacts on their respective drawing boards. Americans ha d become less skeptical and the foreign car business was here to stay.
