Numbered fifth in its series, this chart sets out several horse-drawn carriage and coach designs side by side, each in its own profile so the forms can be compared directly. Such vehicles carried most road travel well into the late 1800s, long before the motorcar, and their body shapes, springs, and wheel proportions were refined through generations of coachbuilding. Early automobile makers inherited much of this design vocabulary, which makes the chart a useful starting point for tracing how the horseless carriage took its first forms from the carriage it replaced.
