- Produced by Mercedes-Benz North America in 1986, 'The Automobile the First 100 Years' takes a Historical look at the evolution of the Automobile and the Automobile Culture.
As some have pointed out in the comments, Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot actually created the first known "mechanical land vehicle" back in 1770. They don't mention him, but you do see a drawing of his 1770 fardier à vapeur in the opening sequence.

Getting my first driver's license, thought that I should be aware of automobile history in order to appreciate being able to drive. very fascinating documentary. :)
So do I. I thought the same.
Your attitude, is a breath of fresh air. History is great to learn, when it is not talking you out of your liberty. Pretty safe from that in auto history. :) World history though,---what a bunch of stinken liars!! :(
I Admire your attitude😃
thanks for making this! this video helped clear some stuff up for me
Who would have thought that the automobile industry has a big role behind the revolution of the whole world. Great Video.
Thank you Charles Goetz, Peter Thomas, Diane Ehrlichman, and Julie Covello for this amazing video
Getting my drivers license and finally a video I’d actually watch
Wheels TV, Thank you for sharing this piece of great car history!
10:28 that guy just crashed into him like " get a move on"
This is awesome! Very educational!!
Now I know!!!😀 thanks for creating this video.
A very interesting video about the car, l have thurly enjoyed it, so well done to the person who made this great video,
The ubiquitous voice of the late Peter Thomas. Possibly the best voice actor ever.
Now I know the name of the narrator for, Forensics Files. 😂
enjoyed this thx
Watching old car documentary
Receives modern car advertisement
Chooses to skip
Continues watching about old cars
Always old cars we choose
They got class,today's don't
very interesting..thx..
I love seeing the history of these amazing machines. Great video!
Me too love it
Mercedes did make this video but I think they were pretty fair to everyone, you couldn't tell it was a Mercedes commercial. This is the short version of the history. It was well made, worth watching :)
they missed out the patterson company car... first African American car
Vidal Charles and they always will to their benefit
For real? Now every fucker will come and cry about a car that was made by someone because of skincolor?
Vidal Charles any other complains you have or sermons? Gimme a break. Idiots like you will bring skin color into every idiot thing. Btw you're name is charles. Why don't you keep an African name to represent a point. 95 percent of blacks like to drive BMWs. Where is this black Patterson car then? Patterson again being an white name. It's a losers game if you gonna go all color on everything in life.
@@basitk12 you do realize that most African Americans have “white” or “American” names because the names of slaves was changed when they were placed on plantations…..most African Americans have “white” names and last names 😭
Now this is what I need to write an essay, not hours of studying🙄✋
Don't know how that would look in bibliography
4:04 don't ever underestimate an engineer
A very good video on car history
Glad you liked it!
If you like this documentary I recommend America on Wheels: The First Hundred Years 1896-1996 if you find a video copy that is.
I need this video beacuse for my project 😊
VERY intresting and informative.
We went from the horse and the isolation of life on the farm plowing fields from sunup to sunset to the personal freedom afforded us by cars, trains, planes, luxury liner ships with electricity from stem to stern while at the same time we electrified a nation. What exciting times these must have been.
The rich were. I think the poor now had possible factory jobs. Idk the history
Now most people don’t have to work on the farm everyday. If you don’t pay rent. You can live one month from one day of work. Purchasing only food
In America I mean
Muy excelente.

I would be curious to know what year this documentary came out. My guess would be around 1988 but I really don't know.
Mike Reiss I think older than that.
I think 1986 since at 1:01 it say 1886 is its bitthday and its 100 years special so thats that
@@Zero.Requiem oh yeah! Good eye!
I wish it was the good 8 days again where u could go buy amazing cars like those for a cheap price
Except they weren't really cheap back then if you account for inflation.

3 year old comment, nice.
Peter Thomas of Forensic Files fame was the narrator in this video.
Good video, but one industry was not mentioned in it: the auto industry also gave us the drive in theatre.
Wich gave us an increasing birth rate.
Key word:: "Hand cranking" and the slogan : "Au Volant La Vue C'est La Vie"
Great story, would have thought the horsepower war/muscle car era would have been covered.
Thank you so much!!!!! I now have a speech tocpic!?!
Are you kidding me? I am also here to prepare for my speech.
How did they make the scene at 09:32 ?
Good question. From what I found online they used an SFX technique called double-exposure.
"The rescue scene - where the protagonists barely avoid being run over by the engine - which was achieved with a double-exposure. For a 1913 effect, it was frighteningly realistic, and it still looks quite good today, (even if the characters get a bit transparent towards the end.)" - www.tvtropes.org
Produced in 1986? I'am thinking this was made in the early 70's.
Familiar voice of Peter Thomas who also narrated Forensic Files
Thay why I can recognise his voice
💜💟🟪☔️☀️💓🔬🧪🧬🧫
Very interesting but Nader attacked the Corvair, not the whole US auto industry.
The first automobile was made in France in the 1700’s.
And it was huge!!lotsa steam too
And it was front wheel drive!
Although they don't mention it in the narration, in the opening sequence they do show a drawing of the automobile that you are referring to (The fardier à vapeur). I added this to the description, it's worth a mention.
When and where was this video originally published? Asking for a college report.
Hello, sorry about the delay. If by chance you are still wondering, it was produced by Mercedes-Benz North America in 1986.
Who woulda think that in 2020 wide roads and suburban sprawls would be a no no.
Now its walkability.
that dudes like im rolling down the hill mummy 19:48
1910 woo nice
👍👍
JEEP CJ and the VW BEETLE.....Voted the two most recognizable vehicles ever produced...
wow
Look back , you don't see a whole lot of women. They waited until most the hard stuff was over.
The people to get into the oil game early = infinite money
Can you imagine automakers stopping production for a war today?
They won't stop, they run concurrent at all times.
Not that they couldn't, that they wouldn't. War exists concurrently with production nowadays.
Could you image people accepting rationing of gas, tires, food items, and many other things we take for granted today?
You have to understand that there is a difference between war and 'world war.'
@@jacksprat3009 No, the me me me gen would be triggered.
A history of the American automobile 🚙 😆
What about the traffic light?
Fun fact....there were steam cars for many decades before the first gasoline car
And they didn't work well.
Funner fact- almost a hundred years before gas/petrol and they were one off autos, most were just oddities and not real great operators.
1906 Peking to Paris race.
Hi sir eugeneeee
Did you notice that sign from the late 50's, early 60's gas at 32 cents?
Jack Sprat 32 cents those days aren't the same as 32 cents these day's.

pov your in driver ed
I hear Peter Thomas. I know its gonna be good.
Here with a suspended driver’s license…
The narrator sounds like Peter Thomas.
The next century of personal transport industry will likely be very different, i.e. electric powered and a massive decline in private ownership.
Inaccuracies in the first 2 minutes, so I gave up there!
I have to watch this for drivers ed. I hate my life.
You're not alone.
I forgot this was made by Mercedes untill the end again, ah, pretty fair and honist there. Tho I still wont accept diesel. I know I get 15 miles per gallon, but ive driven diesel cars... Uha..
Now the majority of the cars on the road are gonna be foreign made
Uh, what country are you in?
Steam cars weren't Self-moving ?????
Of course they were.
France, 1700’s
You use to have real service stations drive alongside the gasoline pumps over the hose that made a sound signal to let someone know you were there most often they knew the customers by name washed windshields check oil honestly these daze you get cursed at dishonesty but then going back they could even work on your autos honestly I miss the good old times we even got free air road maps some had machines vending milk even we got one dollar worth of gasoline now they want to kill you if you don’t fill it up or the pump is rigged to sell you higher cost but not the gasoline always I called consumer affairs and nearly got them put out of business honesty is the best it got me further in love with my senorita amigo and as a customer at scrap metal dealers or where I shop also there returning five cents deposits take it easy honestly it work best fo me
I forgot about the ding..ding.
Even the few remaining "full-service" stations don't seem to have them these days.
I remember that now. Had forgotten
It's a shame that the Dodge Brothers built Ford motor company only left when the automotive patent was deemed non-valid. Thus, they could leave and create their own motor works by then. Ford was a big steam roller that could not be stopped
Europe was the first to invent it but North America made possible for the average American to own one.

What??!! You didn't mention "Tucker"??!! How can you tel the history of the automobile in the USA without talking about Preston Thomas Tucker? He did get shafted by government for the building in Chicago, taken from Tucker breach of contract,---given to the company that made that "affordable housing" that you did mention. That was the end of the free market, (where anybody can compete), in the USA auto industry, and you kinda failed to mention that, (or the fact there was thousands of auto manufactures in the USA, 1900-1920). The rest of the story.
This video is wrong. elwood haynes built and sold the first car in the USA.The one that they claim here was a buggy not a car..... Just unbelievable that they got this wrong...
If I was an adult in the 1890s I would have invented a car with a real powerful V8 engine that could do burnouts.
How many people do not understand technology worth a squat? It's half-a-century after the Moon landing. I have not been to an auto show in 40+ years. People are going into debt for useless variations in garbage.
Henry Ford had the right attitude with the Model-T, but he was mistaken in freezing the design when technology was advancing. Now we are supposed to give a damn because this year's tail lights are more funny looking than last year's tail lights.
can't get past the annoying dots
In my opinion, car engines have gotten way too complicated. Auto companies need to get back to simpler engines of the 1950s and 1960s while keeping the same safety standards of today.
The constant blaring music is ruining my experience!
Watching cause of drivers Ed, bs
same g
wauw, that jump from first car patent to 'races were held all over the continent' was skipping so much that I stopped the video and will look elsewhere
Forensic files
I love cars more than women LoL
...and cars love you back.
@@joef9143 LOL No they can't.
Wild about global warming🤓
Year? My guess 1980s?

lolololololol I get it 😹
We indians saw first modern car in 1981 that too with help of japenese people
no contribution to automotives history
I sucks knowing black people never got to enjoy these luxuries
Sämst film #spyr
i have two friends in their 50's who never learned to drive. they are on to something. motor vehicles / driving is one of humans most moronic inventions. the sooner cars, trucks, etc... go away forever the better
The sulky business clinically hug because active summarily replace since a gullible gusty walk. callous, silky community
has their ever been a worse invention than motor vehicles / driving? money for sure, but that's it.
I love learning the history of almost everything, but it's shame when it comes to black history it's selected what's told. Ask about the history of automobiles you hear about Henry Ford and so on but what about C.R. Patterson a former slave that was making cars long before Herny Ford. But it's a new day and the hidden black history and inventions are beginning to surface changing credit that has been stolen. Shame shame!!
The autobiography of the automobile.
Any other name for autobiography is stupid...
The word autobiography alone means car history.
boo i hate the movie

Stop talking about your weed on YT.

Thank you Charles Goetz, Peter Thomas, Diane Ehrlichman, and Julie Covello for this amazing video
