The first semi-truck, often referred to as a semi-trailer truck, is credited to the early 20th century when various inventors and companies began developing truck and trailer combinations. One of the pioneers was the American inventor Alexander Winton, who created a gasoline-powered truck in 1898. However, the design that closely resembles modern semi-trucks was popularized by the introduction of the semi-trailer concept in the 1920s. This innovation allowed for greater cargo capacity and efficiency in transportation.
