Not too long ago we saw the Air Car which looked pretty impressive. Its now time to have a closer look at the technology behind it and what it has to offer in more details. It talks about two inventors that are working on the same technology but each one has its own different design for the Air Engine. The second one is more interesting since it is a very small engine that has alot of power. VIDEO->

This isn’t any more green than a diesel, and a diesel runs farther on less.

7-17-2008 in 01:16:36Sigh.. Another pessimist. You people say at the end this is still not green bc electricity is from coal plant. Electricity can be harvest from Solar and Wind power. You’re just conservative idiot who just wont think outside of box. Sigh…

7-27-2008 in 21:33:00To quote bob the mob saying its no better than diesal, he is way incorrect. Where I live our power is 100% from hydro electric and is 100% green, and over half the power in the US is from sorces other than coal. This is an amazing idea. Also, the first video the guy still uses a small amount of gas to power the compressors that fill the air tanks, this uses no electricity at all. Bob, just a guess, but your a republican I am sure.

Your argument is false.
Air power will replace gas power.
Since:
Gas pumps use electricity
and
Air pumps use electricity.
The net gain is derived from the
final energy source of the car.
Which one do you want running
the cars, Gas or Air?
