Io's metallic core makes up approximately 20% of its mass. Depending on the amount of sulfur in the core, the core has a radius between 350 and 650 km (220â400 mi) if it is composed almost entirely of iron, or between 550 and 900 km (340â560 mi) for a core consisting of a mix of iron and sulfur.
In 1886, Karl Benz developed a petrol- or gasoline-powered automobile. This is also considered to be the first production vehicle as Benz made several other identical copies. At the turn of the 20th century electrically powered automobiles appeared but only occupied a niche market until the turn of the 21st century.
The history of the automobile begins as early as 1769, with the creation of steam engined automobiles capable of human transport. In 1806, the first cars powered by an internal combustion engine running on fuel gas appeared, which led to the introduction in 1885 of the ubiquitous modern gasoline- or petrol-fueled internal combustion engine.
