the first car transmission
The first transmission was an automatic transmission. It was built by Alfred Horner Munro. He started to build the transmission in 1921 but, it took him a little while. He finished and had it patent in 1923. The first transmission was built in Boston, United states.
The first car with a transmission in it was the 1948 Oldsmobile. The transmission inside the Oldsmobile was an automatic. But, before that, there was a transmission in a “Horseless carriage gearbox”.
Cadillac, Buick, and the Oldsmobile, all had automatic transmissions as soon as they could! Those cars upgraded very quickly, and became very popular for that!
Hydraulic transmission history
GEARS
Neutral allows the car to move regardless of the engine speed. Most of the time, people use neutral to move the car when it’s unable to move on it’s own.
You switch your gears to drive when you just, simply, want to drive. And last, park. Park is the gear you would switch to when you just want to have your car stop without holding the brakes. Today, people still use these same gears!
Transmission fluid
