United States: the road as freedom
In the States, the car museum is only half the story; the road itself is the exhibit. Near Detroit, the sprawling Henry Ford Museum sits beside Greenfield Village and the still-running Rouge factory tour, charting how the assembly line remade the world. On the West Coast, Los Angeles's Petersen Automotive Museum hides over 300 cars in its underground Vault. Threading it all together is Route 66, the « Mother Road » from Chicago to Santa Monica, lined with neon diners…
Ford, Chevrolet, Jeep, Cadillac, Dodge and EV pioneer Tesla: American cars mean wide-open spaces, V8s and road trips. Detroit, «Motor City», is still its historic heart.
The Ford Model T and its assembly line, in 1913, made the automobile affordable and reshaped the world of work.
