The world's first commercial vehicle powered solely by compressed air is being developed by MDI and manufactured by India's largest automaker Tata Motors.Luxembourg based MDI plan to sell 6,000 Air Cars in India during a product launch pencilled in for August 2008. Priced at around £7,000, the City-CAT (one of a proposed range of Air Cars) will be fitted with a carbon-fibre fuel-tank capable of holding 340 litres of air at 4350 psi. Some petrol stations will be installed with custom air compressor units capable of filling the tank in just a few minutes and for just £1.
Technology exists for driving cars on water fuel! An electrical charge splits the H2O into its constituent parts and this is burned. Currently this seems to be in kit form to be added to existing vehicles and is mixed with existing fuels.
The technology is out there to cut emissions - so WHY are governments not funding and backing these projects if 'global warming' really is an issue?
Strange, isn't it? - I do hope that the cynical out there will not be suggesting that this would 'slaughter a nice little cash cow' for the Treasury's coffers!
[THANKS STAN!]
