Ford Motor company. It produced the Cadillac. All these early modern cars burned gasoline or
diesel fuel. Ford opened factories in France and Britain in 1911. Then, they opened a factory in
Denmark in 1923. Later, they opened a factory in Germany in 1925. Ford was one of the first
manufacturers to use an assembly line. With an assembly line, factory workers could produce
