The Model T had an interesting design, with a sturdy frame, a long hood, high ground clearance, an open-air compartment, and a large steering wheel with two pedals (the gas pedal and the brake). It was powered by an engine, which was a type of motor, and ran on a type of fuel called gasoline. The Model T was easy to drive, and its simple design made it easy to repair and maintain. This car made it possible for many people to get around in a more convenient, comfortable, and affordable way.
