Answer:

O Gasoline was not produced until 1920.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the 1890s, motor cars reached their modern stage of development. A steam car burned fuel that heated water in a boiler. This process made steam that expanded and pushed pistons, which turned a crankshaft. An electric car had a battery that powered a small electric motor, which turned a drive shaft.
