The First mass produced vehicle
The "Model-T", or colloquially known as Tin Lizzie and the Flivver, was the first car to be mass-produced. The first assembly ine was launched in 1908 by Henry Ford’s Ford Motor Company. He was able to manufacture the Model-T for mass consumption, and he offered it to customers at a much affordable price compared to the rival: therefore regaled as the first affordable automobile and dubbed as the car which "put America on wheels". The success was largely attributed to a few of Ford’s innovations, some of which are the substitution of individual hand crafting for assembly line production, and paying the workers a wage proportionate to the cost of the car. By 1913, Ford was producing half of all cars sold in the United States. And come 1927, he had sold over 15 million units of Model-Ts.
The first production Model T was built in Detroit, Michigan on September 27, 1908, at the Piquette Plant.
