X (shown above) was the first automobile having a petrol-powered internal combustion engine that entered production. Its main selling point was practicality and ease of use, as exemplified famously by a road trip taken in it by the wife of the inventor of X.
Y (shown above), on the other hand, became famous for bringing automobiles to the masses. Y was the first automobile mass produced on assembly lines with completely interchangeable parts. It also remained in production for almost 20 years.
The companies started by the inventors of X and Y are very much in the automotive scene even today. Identify X and Y, or at least their inventors.
