About 1870, in Vienna, capital of Austria (then, the Austro-Hungarian Empire), inventor Siegfried Marcus put an internal liquid fuel engine on a simple handcart which made him the first man propelling a vehicle by means of gasoline. Today, this car is well known as “The first Marcus Car”.

In 1883, Marcus got a patent for a low voltage ignition of the magneto type - in Germany. This design was used for all further engines and, of course, the famous “Second Marcus Car” of 1888/89. This ignition in conjunction with the “rotating brush carburettor” made the “Second Car”'s design very innovative.
