How long has the car engine been around for?
The first four-stroke gasoline internal combustion engine was invented by German engineer Nikolaus August Otto in 1876. Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach mounted an internal combustion engine onto a bicycle, creating the first motorcycle in 1885, and in 1887 they manufactured their first car. In the meantime, Karl Benz produced his first car with an internal combustion engine in 1886.

Although there had been various examples before, English scientist Samuel Brown was in 1823 (revised in 1826) the first man to patent the internal combustion engine.
In what year were car engines invented?
Many different car engines have been invented. The first internal combustion engine was invented in 1807. It used a fuel of hydrogen and oxygen. In 1858 the first coal gas fueled internal combustion engine was invented. In 1864 a gasoline fueled engine was attached to a cart.

When was a two -stroke dirt bike built?
First Engine Ever InventedSo now we know that the first motorcycle was built by either Otto or Daimler but we still don't know who made the first engine to get the motorcycle to run. Well apparently the first engine to be invented was by the Dutch scientist Christian Huygens in 1678 and ran on gunpowder but he never actually got around to actually building it. A few hundred years later a guy named Etienne Lenoir built an internal combustion engine much like Huygens model, only this one ran on gasoline. Then in 1866 Nikolaus Otto teamed up with a guy named Eugen Langen and they made a better internal combustion engine. All these engines so far have been two-strokes, but in 1876 Otto developed what we know today as the four-stroke internal combustion engine.

What do all of the letters hemi stand for?
Hemi actually is a short form for Hemisphere. The term refers to a hemi engine which has been described as an internal combustion engine in which the combustion chambers are of hemispherical form. For many centuries hemispherical combustion chambers were used in cannon and mortars and these chambers were initiated on some of the earliest automotive engines before the concept of nternal combustion engines were proved.
