Better at dissipating heat than drum brakes, disc brakes were first mass produced on what French car?
Answer Citroën DS
Disc brakes earned their due after a critical demonstration of superiority at the 1953 24 Hours of Le Mans race, which required braking from high speeds several times per lap. The Jaguar racing team won, using disc brake equipped cars, with much of the credit being given to the brakes' superior performance over rivals equipped with drum brakes. Mass production began with the 1955 Citroën DS.
