It’s been more than 140 years since the first kind of ‘motor vehicle’ was driven on a public road – and that car had three wheels, no cabin, and a combustion engine that made just 0.75 horsepower. Now we’d argue that that invention is little more than a motorized tricycle, given how much technology has advanced in the century and a half since then. The advancement of technology is particularly obvious in the automotive world where we have cars that run on gas, electricity, or a combination of the two, can park themselves, and can be spoken to operate.
