There are many to choose from:

The very first cars were steam driven, they also tried (and failed) with electric cars before the Petrol engine was developed.

Was not invented by any single person but the first was driven in 1769 by Nicolas Joseph Cugnot and reached a speed of 2.5MPH. The first car accident was by the same person in 1771.

The first Electric engines were built by the Scots in the 1830's, and the Americans took a real liking to it. They were popular up until the beginning of the 20th Century, however few other contries took them so seriously, having a preferance to the much more consistant Petrol.

In the early days of cars there was a speed limit of 2MPH in towns and 4MPH out of town. A man carrying a flag also had to walk in front of the vehicle to warn people of its presence.

Rolls Royce built the first truely luxury car complete with metal roof that didn't leak and a truely reliable engine for the day in the Silver Ghost, the first car built since the companies amalgamation.

3 major changes can include:

The development of the engine
The removal of speed limits
The re-introduction of legally enforsed speed limits in 1967.
Also take a good look at the machines created as a result of the technology used in the motor car during WW1

Reliability, safety and power. The first car rolled onto the road in the late 1800's, and could only do around 4mph. It ran on peanut oil. The inventor's wife was the first person ever to run out of fuel.
