of the automobile by building it from yesterday.Obviously, without and engine, the car will not move, unless in the presence of a down hill slope. Without the four-stroke engine, an automobile would lack power and speed. Likewise, without the transmission, the automobile would not have any power or any speed. However, it doesnt matter how much power or how much speed the vehicle has if it cannot be slowed down its useless. Brakes are not only an essential but are a safety requirement for the automobile as well. Pneumatic tires are somewhat of a safety requirement too. To drive a car on the highway with solid rubber tires would be suicide because of the lack of movement within the tire. Pneumatic tires accommodate for this requirement as a cushion of air. Working well in hand with pneumatic tires is the suspension system. Without it the driver could easily be thrown out of the vehicle by the smallest of potholes. Lastly, is the battery, and to have a car in the 21st century without a battery would seem to be insane. However, the future may be able to redesign the automobile to being solar powered. No one knows what to expect 50 years from now. Nikolaus Otto thought the car would be forgotten by the 1900s. But through his work and through the work of others, the inventors of today and tomorrow are and will be able to create and invent automobiles from yesterday and today for the future of tomorrow....
