Historical reference
The Ford Model T (IPA: / fɔ: (r) d mɒdl ti: /), also known as the Tin Lizzie, was a vehicle manufactured by the Ford Motor Company from 1908 to 1927. It was the first car in the world to be produced in million series. Henry Ford, according to many, "put America on wheels" by making the new passenger car relatively affordable for the middle-class American [source unspecified 456 days]. This became possible thanks to such innovations as the use of a conveyor belt instead of individual manual assembly and reasonable, without compromising quality, simplification of the car design, which reduces the cost. The first Model T was built on September 27, 1908 at the Pickett Plant in Detroit, Michigan.
Contrary to popular belief, the Model T's design was perfectly adapted to the mass-production technologies of its time, while it was neither simplistic nor in any way bad compared to other cars of those years - features that seem "simplistic" today, like the thermosyphon system cooling without a water pump or lubrication of all engine components by spraying, in those years they were also in use on more expensive brands, and were even considered progressive, thanks to the development of automotive technology in the 1910s - 1920s, they largely followed the path of eliminating unnecessary, redundant complication of the design characteristic of the previous era.
In terms of its technical characteristics, comfort and equipment, Ford T was also not inferior to most cars of its time, surpassed many of them in reliability and durability, and in terms of overall dimensions and engine volume corresponded to modern middle class models, in contrast to the massive European small cars that followed. designed as a full-fledged family vehicle to handle long distances and poor roads, long-haul attachment and supplier for spaciousness, comfort and safety factor [not specified 456 days]. It is to such a set, performance and consumer quality, not only low cost and aggressive marketing, that the Model T has been its global success.
