Ainqola yegalofu(okungenjalo kwaziwanjengenqola yegalofu noma imoto yegalofu) iyimoto encane enenjini eyenzelwe ekuqaleni ukuthwala abadlali begalofu ababili kanye namakilabhu abo egalofu endaweni yokudlala igalofu enomzamo omncane kunokuhamba ngezinyawo.Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, kwethulwa okuhlukile okukwazi ukuthwala abagibeli abaningi, okunezici ezengeziwe zensiza, noma zagunyazwa njengeimoto yasemgwaqweni enesivinini esiphansi
Ainqola yegalofu yendabuko, ekwazi ukuthwala abadlali begalofu ababili namakilabhu abo, ngokuvamile ingamamitha angu-1.2 ububanzi, amafidi angu-8 (2.4 m) ubude namamitha angu-1.8 ukuphakama, nesisindo esiphakathi kuka-900 kuya ku-1,000 amakhilogremu (410 kuya ku-450) futhi ekwazi ukuhamba ngesivinini esingaba ngamamayela angu-15 ngehora (24 km/h).Intengo yenqola yegalofu ingasukela noma kuphi ukusuka ngaphansi kuka-US$1,000 kuya ngaphezu kuka-US$20,000 inqola ngayinye, kuye ngokuthi ihlonyiswe kanjani.
Kubikwa ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kokuqala kwenqola enenjini enkundleni yegalofu kwaba ngu-JK Wadley wase-Texarkana, owabona inqola kagesi enamasondo amathathu isetshenziswa e-Los Angeles ukuthutha abantu abadala ukuya esitolo segrosa.Kamuva, wathenga inqola futhi wathola ukuthi yayingasebenzi kahle enkundleni yegalofu.Inqola yokuqala yegalofu kagesi yenziwa ngokwezifiso ngo-1932, kodwa ayizange yamukelwe kabanzi.Ngeminyaka yawo-1930 kuze kube yiminyaka yawo-1950 ukusetshenziswa okwandile kakhulu kwezinqola zegalofu kwakungokwalabo abakhubazekile ababengakwazi ukuhamba ibanga elide. Maphakathi nawo-1950 inqola yegalofu yase yamukelwa kabanzi ngabadlali begalofu base-US.
UMerle Williams waseLong Beach, eCalifornia wayengumsunguli wokuqala wenqola yegalofu kagesi. Waqala ngolwazi aluthola ngokukhiqizwa kwezimoto zikagesi ngenxa yesilinganiso sikaphethiloli seMpi Yezwe II.Ngo-1951 Inkampani yakhe iMarketteer yaqala ukukhiqiza inqola yegalofu kagesi eRedlands, eCalifornia.
UMax Walker udaliweinqola yegalofu esebenza ngophethiloli "The Walker Executive"ngo-1957. Le moto enamasondo amathathu yayimise ngaphambili ngendlela ye-Vespa futhi, njenganoma iyiphi inqola yegalofu, yayithwala abagibeli ababili nezikhwama zegalofu.
Ngo-1963 i-Harley-Davidson Motor Company yaqala ukukhiqiza izinqola zegalofu.Ngokuhamba kweminyaka bakha futhi basabalalisa izinkulungwane zezimoto zikaphethiloli ezinamasondo amathathu namane kanye nezikagesi ezisafunwa kakhulu.Inqola enamasondo amathathu ewumfanekiso,ngesondo lokuqondisa noma isiteringi esisekelwe ku-tiller, izishaya isifuba ngenjini ehlehlayo enamasondo amabili efana naleyo esetshenziswa namuhla ezimotweni zeqhwa ezisezingeni eliphezulu.(Injini ihamba ngokwewashi kumodi eya phambili.) U-Harley Davidson udayisele ukukhiqizwa kwamakalishi egalufuInkampani yaseMelika kanye ne-Foundry Company, owadayisela ukukhiqizwaColumbia Par Car.Iningi lalawa mayunithi lisekhona nanamuhla, futhi liyimpahla eyigugu yabanikazi abaziqhenyayo, ababuyiseli, nabaqoqi emhlabeni wonke.
