The Duryea Motor Wagon was among the first standardized automobiles and among the first powered by gasoline. Fifteen Motor Wagons were built by the Duryea company of Springfield, Massachusetts, between 1893 and 1896.
Before this time, all automobiles were one-off individual models,[citation needed] The first commercially available automobile was patented by Karl Benz on January 29, 1886 and put into production in 1888.
It is not clear whether the Benz Velo or this vehicle was standardized first.[citation needed] The Duryea Motor Wagon remained in production into the 1920s.
