Forget gas and electricity use compressed air. http://www.theaircar.com/ Thought this was cool. Not sure how practical it is but hey no emissions and no long charge time.
Sounds great. It's an engineering marvel. Now, if they can just get spelling mistakes on their website right... <_<

:blink: No, no, please don't blow my mind anymore! One thing: It sounds very loud. I think I'd prefere EV mode.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(regenme @ Mar 25 2007, 03:55 PM) [snapback]411854[/snapback]</div> yes glued sounds scary instead of welded , but gluing is well proven way of bonding metals. this metod is used both on sportcars, planes and lots of the things they send up in space.. Its often used when its different types of metal that have to be connected or "soft" metal that needs a larger bonding aera .-) yea id like one ,, id actually like the small Mini CAT 3seater version. if it will be sold in the future and cheap enough id buy one for the city use just the tought about telling people when they ask about milage ans so on,,, "it runs on air".....hehehe
