Because there are different kinds of automobiles, such as steam, electric and gasoline, people have different opinions about who invented the first true automobile. According to The Library of Congress, most agree that it was Karl Benz of Germany. Benz registered his patent for a gasoline-powered automobile on January 29, 1886.

The first automobile was probably the steam powered 1770 Cugnot Fardier. The original Fardier de Cugnot has been in the collection of the Le Conservatoire de Arts et Metiers, Paris, France since 1801. This vehicle is on loan to the Tampa Bay Automobile Museum from the Deutsche Ban Museum in Nuremberg, Germany. So, if you happen to be in Tampa Bay, you can see, and possibly photograph the very first automobile.
