Gas Fueled Carriage From Munich Generates Power From Benzine
A Munich firm builds a three wheel carriage powered by gas produced from benzine. The hidden rear engine ignites the gas in a closed cylinder by an electric spark. Benzine is stored under the seat and feeds the generator drop by drop for about seventy five miles. Speed is controlled by a hand lever and a chain linked to the rear axle. The vehicle reaches ten miles per hour on open road and slower in crowds. A quart of benzine lasts about one hour.
