In 1876, the German engineer Gottlieb Daimler developed on behalf of the firm Deutz, the first fixed gas engine operating on the principle presented by Beau de Rochas. Nevertheless, Daimler engines are not yet installed on the chassis of the car that will make its own. It was not until 1889 that René Panhard and Emile Levassor installed the first four-stroke engine - the Daimler - a car with four places.

It was in 1883 that Edouard Delamare-Deboutteville circulated his car whose engine is fueled by gas, but the gas supply hose broke out during the first trial, it replaces the gas carbide pétrole. To use this product, he invented a carburetor wicks. This vehicle is traveling for the first time in early February 1884 and the patent was filed February 12, 1884 under number 160267. The prior-Edouard Delamare Deboutteville Carl Benz is on, it seems incontestable. However, this automotive paternity is contested and it seems that vehicles developed by Delamare-Deboutteville be away from work correctly, some exploding during their brief utilisation.

Indeed, although it is difficult to determine with certainty the first car in history, it is generally accepted that it is the Benz Patent Motorwagen, produced by Carl Benz, even though the British Royal Automobile Club and the Automobile Club de France agree that this is the goblin of Cugnot. In January 1891, Panhard et Levassor are already rolling through the streets of Paris the first French models equipped with the Benz engine. These are the first cars with internal combustion engines marketed. Mr. Vurpillod becomes the same year the first purchaser of a Peugeot car Panhard & Levassor license "horseless". The story seems to forget, however, the German inventor Siegfried Marcus, in 1877, develops a car equipped with 4-stroke engine with a power of 1 horse, called "machine char atmospheric air.
