LA PRIMA AUTO A CIRCOLARE IN ITALIA
Today, there are around 40 million cars on the road in Italy and if we would count all those that have travelled the national roads in 130 years, the number would be exponential.
But… What was the first car to circulate in Italy? When did it arrive? What kind of car was it? Was it Italian or foreign? What did it look like? And was it faster than a horse? Who bought it? Why? How much did it cost, and how did it work? Did it require a licence? Where did it circulate? Does it still exist? What was its history? Where can it be admired today?
The answer is in this essay, written by Fabrizio Taiana, and published by ASI, based on verified and proved historical facts.
A milestone of motoring in Italy is the Peugeot Tipo 3 of 1892, which can be considered the "number one" car in the National Automobile Museum's collection for being the first car to circulate in Italy.
