Have you ever seen a car? Well, a very long time ago, way before you were born, someone made a car called the Benz Patent Motorwagen. It was made by a man named Karl Benz who wanted to make a car that could move people and things faster than horses and carriages.
The Benz Patent Motorwagen looked very different from the cars we see today. It was a small, boxy-looking vehicle with three wheels and no roof. It had a strange-looking engine that made noise and smelled bad. The driver had to crank a lever to start the engine and then drive the car by using a steering wheel and pedals.
Can you imagine riding in a car like that? It would be bumpy, loud, and smelly! But back then, it was very exciting because people had never seen anything like it before.
The Benz Patent Motorwagen was the first car ever made, which means every car in the world today is related to it. It was a big step forward for transportation and technology, and it paved the way for the cars we know and love today!
