A tricycle that changed the world. 1885, Germany: Carl Benz applies for a patent for a three-wheeler with an engine: the birth of the car. We trace the development, shoot in Stuttgart at the Mercedes-Benz Museum, follow the Bertha Benz route and are on the road in Mannheim, where the Carl Benz had his workshop. Lukas rides in a replica of the first car.
