The story of the transformation of a self-propelled carriage into modern car

1.2.10 Automotive industry development

A whole book would not be enough to describe everything that has appeared over the past fifty years. But it should be mentioned that difficulties for the subsequent development of the automotive industry arose in each period of history (either a fuel crisis, or an environmental crisis). The genius of engineering accepted each obstacle as a challenge, adequately fulfilling the tasks set that sometimes seemed insoluble. This is how variable cam timing systems, electronic fuel injection systems, active and passive safety systems, systems for changing the valve opening height, hybrid systems and much more appeared.
