This article lacks information, like how popular it was —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.232.36.159 ( talk) 19:38, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
Surely something has gone wrong with the first sentence:
"'Italic text'Italic text'Italic text'Italic text'Italic text'Italic text'Italic text''''''''' (or motorcar), built in 1886, is widely regarded as the first automobile, that is, a vehicle designed to be propelled by a motor."
I can't see what is intended even. I'm afraid I don't know how to keep the quoted sentence within the page either. Apologies for ignorance. Dawright12 ( talk) 10:57, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
What kind of fuel did it use? And if it was able to run on many kinds, then, what did people actually use. I would love more information on the engine, like who built it, and when when this kind of engine was first built. Velle ( talk) 23:18, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Distance? Why does the description of the original long distance trip say 194km(120mi) and the modern version everyone can take say 194km(121mi). i could understand there being a difference due to road changes, but that difference is just confusing —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.103.160.233 ( talk) 17:21, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
I've created an article titled "Benz tricycle" to redirect to this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lxsys ( talk • contribs) 17:54, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
An Austrian Jew is the real inventor of the first modern Car! Fact!

"Ligroin" is not a word known to English-speaking readers. Yes it's linked to Petroleum ether (also not a widely known term), but I think a clause here explaining in general terms what it is or was would be helpful. Sca ( talk) 13:50, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
There seems to be a discrepancy between articles on this encyclopedia, with multiple articles claiming multiple vehicles as “world’s first automobile”, as an attempt to remedy this, I added “gasoline-powered” to the lead section, as well as citing a book written by a Oxford-graduate professor of cultural history (as my previous attempt was rightfully reverted by a page watcher, as I had forgotten to cite my sources).
I believe this discrepancy is best treated with consensus, and as a result of that, I am open to conversation under this section regarding my edit.
