It's really disappointing how underrated this channel is

The Ford Model T was the first mass produced car, and 15 million were sold between 1908 and 1927
I would put that in the top three if this was the even ten since how common it was and it looks brilliant as well

Fun fact: the Porsche 959 has a lower gear for off-roading
Yes. Off-roading. In a supercar.

The Citroen has been on my dream quirky car list for a long time. So funky cool

Citroen Traction Avant was also an innovative car, it kinda invented the FWD

[Wolf-kygk]

Lancia has been very innovative: 1913 Lancia Theta first car with electric starter, 1922 Lancia Lambda first car with self-supporting body and independent suspension, 1950s Lancia Aurelia first car with V6 engine built in series, 1970s Lancia Fulvia first V4 engine with 15 crad angle, 2002 Lancia Thesis first car with LED taillights in Series built, and the hole Rally Wins

A couple of things you didn't mention about the Citroen DS: in a head-on collision the engine was designed to slide under the front occupants' seats instead of into their laps. The steering wheel was also designed to break partway down the shaft so the driver wouldn't be speared in the chest in a head-on. A blowout in one of the front wheels at speed wouldn't cause the vehicle to lurch towards the blown tyre. In fact, you could still steer the vehicle with one finger through the blowout, as per some advertisements. Self levelling headlights were standard in the late 60's. Essentially, safety was engineered into the DS. Even the spare tyre was in front of the engine to reduce impact. In 1971 my parents were in a head-on collision where the oncoming vehicle veered into their lane and hit them head on. Mom and Dad walked away from it, but the occupants of the other car--a BMW, if I remember correctly--died on impact. Police estimated the collision speed to be in excess of 160 kph (100 mph).

all of the holy trinity of hypercard too

The McLaren F1, 1st car to be made from carbon fiber, a 3 seater, fastest car in the world ( at the time) and STILL is the fastest naturally aspirated car in the world, with little modifications it won the 24hr of LeMans and it was the first (and only) car to put gold, real gold in the engine to deal with the immense heat coming from the insane BMW v12.

Also the 959 was the first road car with sequential turbochargers, which made turbochargers interesting for supercars in the first place, since they got rid of most of the turbolag.

You added WHAT IS LOVE !!!
Cool little detail over there. Wish they head

Outro part:
Ford Model T (world's first proper car with internal combustion engine)
Tucker Torpedo (famous for its airplane sourced flat-six engine, modern styling at that time with high safety levels, fuel injection, magnesium wheels, disc brakes, a swiveling spotlight at the front, padded dashboard and instrumentation on the steering wheel, too bad that its maker, Tucker was called fraud before the car even went into full production run...)
Chrysler Voyager, although it was badged as a Dodge on the screen (famous for its space efficiency, cheap price and well styled design that hardly any design changes were required for over a decade)

[velsonline]

1: Ford model T
2: tuker 48
3: dodge (ramcharger)- incorrect
(Edit): I'm extremely sorry it's called dodge ram van it's not the ramcharger

[RapideWombaticus]

The Citroen DS looks have always challenged my sensitivities. But I must admit, it was damn innovative

[charlesemmanuelbullas]

This guy has the best editing skills, has good explanations, and great speech!

Great of you to include the Tucker. Nice vid as always stype

I remember seeing my first tesla, a 2013 black model S. It was just casually parked on the curb, and I remember looking inside it with awe. Now Model 3s and Ys are ubiquitous and teslas are pretty well known and everywhere. Tesla has come a long way since that 2013 model S.
