Last updated 2024.12.12

New entry for 1807-1808 - not my research.
Check out François Isaac de Rivaz on Wikipedia. Snippet (in case Wikipedia gets sniped to remove this history).

"François Isaac de Rivaz (December 19, 1752, in Paris – July 30, 1828, in Sion) was a French-born Swiss inventor and a politician. He invented a hydrogen-powered internal combustion engine with electric ignition and described it in a French patent published in 1807. In 1808 he fitted it into a primitive working vehicle – "the world's first combustion powered automobile".[1] "
