Ten cars have influenced the automotive industry part 1


Did you know that there's more than 1 billion vehicles in the now world branch into cars as the main 
value, buses and trucks , number was unexpected for Karl Benz when he took his first masterpiece and established Mercedes Benz which blaze a trail for automobile industrial revolution in the 20th century and turn this manufacture one of the substantial materials of a huge number of industries in the world Subsequently the world economic system, Karl Benz didn't sleep dreaming by this "Mercedes patent Motorwagen" and get up finding it opposite him, but German patent number 37435 a heir to experiments of steam powered vehicles which begun from 17th century and kept on the next time period in France and England parallel to some tests to create electric car reached some of success but not popularity. As any product move from zero-degree step by step so Benz was pioneer of engineering cars, then a lot of people and firms develop the history of automobile, which help us to create this list 



Austin 7
Actually, it wasn't the first car that use the modern layout control with gear lever, and handbrake between front seats, which thanks to Cadillac type 53 for presented this invention, but Austin motor company by this model was the first mass-market and popular car to be fitted by control layout as found on today cars. leadership not only for this reason, but it acted an important role at history of automobile in shortage of materials post first world war. Austin 7 was a leap moving other companies have significance today as BMW, which use this design by license from Austin motor to build the first BMW car named Dixi in Germany, and Nissan in Japan. (Austin 7) for British market acts the same role of Ford T in the American one.





Tucker 48
51 pieces produced didn't stop this car being in the list, new car related to people demands after world war 2, and Tucker corporation began working for that even before the end of war by 1944 summer, and took three years nearly for the first version. Singularity of (Tucker 48) for number of features as the most recognizable was the third headlight to light car's path around corners and other innovations like Magnesium wheels, disc brakes, fuel injection, self-sealing tube less tires, and a direct-drive torque converter transmission which became standard later. Preston Tucker began producing (car of the future) associated by Alex Tremulis as a designer, and hydraulic drive system designed by George Lawson. in contrast his dreams weren’t rosy and he faced production cost rising, so he took a way open failure door of the project. His Accessories Program raised funds by selling accessories before the car was even in production, and selling dealership rights and floating a $20 million stock issue through the Chicago brokerage firm, Tucker’s corporation polices moved U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to investigate and accuse company directors, the charges not only dropped but the corporation too, closing one important page of automotive history even if 51 cars didn't achieve all Preston features virtually however theoretically smooth for vehicles nowdays


Mercedes-Benz 300 SL
It was unacceptable for me to choose 10 cars without select Mercedes model, and Mercedes-Benz 300 sl an excellent representative of the automotive industry father, where considered as first Mercedes (sport lightweight ) class which known as Mercedes sl class, After world war 2 Mercedes has a huge gap in American market, which shares a large part of global economy because of economic crisis in Europe after war, gull-wing model bridging that gap and leading circulation movement of Benz corporation. Exterior shape with gull-wing or butterfly doors was invention, more than 200 horse power, six cylinder-inline engine, the fastest production car at this era with 260 km/h top speed and the first gasoline-powered car equipped with direct fuel injection. Production end in 1963 but its effect extends to Mercedes-Benz history therefore all history of cars.



Morris Minor
The situations surrounded by this time of British automobile industry launched this model as one the most successful designs in 20th century. An oil crisis pushed the somewhat head of BMC to put design requirements for a miniature car agreed with these conditions, Alec Issigonis was one of Participant engineers of BMC former Morris Minor accept that trying to present a small car consumes one gallon for 64km with kerb weight 580-686 kg only. Despite small dimensions the design and manufacture ensure benefit from 80 percent of the structure. Its transverse-engine front-wheel-drive layout.it made big difference in small cars selling until the end in 2000.


Tesla model S

Tesla model S the only 2000s starting production car in the list why not? Tesla s with Nissan leaf leading 
the new generation of cars named electric car and it moves with a battery its capacity is (360MJ). it makes a very huge leap in cars due to the economic consumption for power in this car. The Tesla Model S was the top selling plug-in electric car worldwide in 2015 and 2016 as The Model S became the first electric car to top the monthly new car sales ranking in any country, twice leading in Norway, in September and December 2013 and also in Denmark in December 2015 and one of 25-time inventions of the year 2012. Global Model S sales passed the 150,000-unit milestone in November 2016, with the U.S. as the leading market with 57% of global sales. It is proposed that electric cars will spread in the world in the coming years.

Stages of automobile manufacture:Exterior design

Distinctive shapes and designs to pick up the appropriate one, mission of determining angles and  dimensions of the car, means that car designing not easily like illustration your fantasy car for stimulation. Here we gonna envision phases of vehicle exterior designing from dream to reality sketching: Group of designers extract ideas depending on creativity turn over illustrations on portraying showing viewpoints, an enormous number of designs like twofold edged sword cause you better and best, and you should decrease the measure of sketches, so few of them met all requirements to the following stage. software: Chosen ones designing in advanced software like adobe photoshop to assess a design in shading, how it would look realistically and review designs to next level, the designing in 3D surface-demonstrating software such as AutoDesk Alias Automotive to break down and check car under a light, surfaces carry on and smoothness.

Who owns who : Porsche SE >Volkswagen Group> Porsche AG= Volkswagen

Volkswagen Group owns many big-name subsidiaries began with Volkswagen itself to Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini to our focus Porsche AG.  Porsche has a long and interesting history, of working with VW; in  1934  the Porsche company  received an official order for the design and construction of a German Volkswagen (Original beetle) which manufactured in the garage of the Porsche villa in Stuttgart.

Collaboration between VW and Porsche continued with the AUDI RS4, which was assembled by Porsche. Then came the Porsche Cayenne and the VW Touareg, which were developed on a common platform. In mid-2005 Porsche SE (owner of ...
