1872
u don't know so I am
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.
The history of the automobile starts in the year 1769 when the steam engine automobile was invented. In 1806 the first cars with internal combustion where created. In 1885 modern petrol/gasoline was used in cars.
Jean Joseph Etienne Lenoir developed the internal combustion engine in 1859. He was a Belgian engineer. Etienne Lenoir developed the first single-cylinder two-stroke engine by mixing coal gas and air to ignite a 'jumping spark' ignition system.
Essentially the first internal combustion engine was invented in the late 1600's (the specific year is unknown) by the English inventor Sir Samuel Morland. The engine ran on gun powder and was used mostly for pumping water. In 1860 the Belgium inventor, Lenoir, designed an engine that some consider the first Internal Combustion Engine, because it ran on a mixture of air and coal dust and was ignited by an electrical spark. In 1863, the engine was revised to include a carburettor and burn liquid petroleum gas. The engine was use to move a three wheeled cart, but most commonly it was used as a stationary power plant for printing presses, water pumps, and machine tools.
Probably somewhat around 1650 by Christiaan Huygens, (14 April 1629 - 8 July 1695). He was a prominent Dutch mathematician, astronomer, physicist, horologist. His work included the invention of the pendulum clock and other investigations in timekeeping, the principle of the steam engine and a gunpowder engine which latter is in fact the first internal combustion engine.
1672 - First internal combustion engine which was fuelled by a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen and develop the world's first vehicle to run on such an engine. 1885 - Karl Benz built an automobile powered by an Otto gasoline engine. He received a patent in the 1886 for the same. Mr. Benz is generally credited with the invention of the modern automobile.

In 1698, Thomas Savery invented the engine.
James Watt invented steam engine & it is invented in 1769
He didn't invent a car! It was a new type of gasoline internal combustion engine which used a "four-stroke" system that he invented in 1876. Otto first used his engine to drive a motorcycle, not a car. Other people named his new engine system the "Otto Cycle Engine". It works so well that it is still the main engine system that is used worldwide for many different kinds of vehicles.
A brief outline of the history of the internal combustion engine includes the following highlights: * 1680 - Dutch physicist, Christian Huygens designed (but never built) an internal combustion engine that was to be fueled with gunpowder. * 1807 - Francois Isaac de Rivaz of Switzerland invented an internal combustion engine that used a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen for fuel. Rivaz designed a car for his engine - the first internal combustion powered automobile. However, his was a very unsuccessful design. * 1824 - English engineer, Samuel Brown adapted an old Newcomen steam engine to burn gas, and he used it to briefly power a vehicle up Shooter's Hill in London. * 1858 - Belgian-born engineer, Jean Joseph
