The History of Car
The history of the car gives an account of birth and evolution of the car, major technological creation which considerably changed the societies of numerous countries in the course of the XXth century. It has the root in XIXth century when technology makes the nice part in the steam as source of energy to turn then to oil and motor with explosion in great numbers.
The car was progressively obvious in developed countries as main mode of transport for the circulation of the individuals and the goods. Her industry was one of the most important and the most influential areas since the end of the Second World war and its worldwide development was spectacular250 000 cars are enumerated in 1907, 500 000 in 1914 with the appearance of Ford T and 50 millions before the Second World war.
The fleet of cars trebles the Thirty Glorious counterpart and attains the 300 million vehicles in 1975. In 2007, the annual worldwide production of cars crosses the cape of the 70 million units, and they think that the park could exceed the billion in 2010.
The invention of the car was not the origin of a single creator but "reflect an evolution which took place all over the world" over more than a century. They estimate the number of brevets about 100 000 at the origin of the modern car. The car revolutionized the transport and drew away deep social changes, particularly in the report of the individuals in the space.
It favoured the development of economic and cultural exchanges and drives to the massive development of new facilities (roads and freeways, parking). Whole cultural world constructed from its broadcasting as object of consumption general public and it represents - following the example of other creations of the XXth century as the radio, television or the refrigerator today - a broadly considered equipment as necessary in the homes of industrial countries. At the same time means of social differentiation and instrument of free time, the car occupies a distinguished place in contemporary way of life. His effects on social life were from its appearance, and are more than ever today, subjects of polemic. Having received at the beginning of its massive broadcasting in 1920s as a progress in terms of agility and comfort, the car was the object of important criticisms both in its environmental consequences (use of not renewable energies, increase of the rate of accidental decease, sound and atmospheric pollution) and social (individualism, obesity, impact on town and country planning). Her utility came to compete with collective modes of transport as trolley cars in city or train for long-distance itineraries.
In the turn of the XXth century and the XXIth century, the car, which was already confronted to the different oil crisis, must consequently encounter in the ineluctable growing shortage of oil, in climatic warming and in restrictions of polluting programs imposed on industry as a whole.
From all these, added the worldwide financial crisis which severely affect the car industry, some big worldwide groups were consequently meeting very serious difficulties.
