What was the 2nd car to be invented?
I am asking this on behalf of my great-daughter ZARIA. I wonder how this question came to mind in the first place.

There isn’t one universally agreed “second car,” because it depends on what counts as a car. If we count early steam-powered road vehicles, the French inventor Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot built a second steam carriage in **1770**, after his earlier model.
If Zaria means gasoline-powered cars, the answer is different: several early designs appeared around **1885–1886**, so there

Sign inFollowing Karl Benz's 1886 Patent-Motorwagen (widely deemed the first modern car), Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach built the Daimler Stahlradwagen in 1889. It was the first four-wheeled, gasoline-powered automobile designed from scratch as a car rather than a motorized carriage.
