Guy Negre of MDI Air Car engine that runs on compressed air. Emissions are only filtered air that's cleaner than outside air. 300 bars of pressure in carbon-fibre & kevlar air tanks. Car can travel at 110 km/hr and has a 150 km driving range. Refilling can be done by plugging in at home or at a special high-pressure air station. Dual-energy models use small amounts of bio-fuels that can extend the range to over 1400 kms.

Pollution free vehicle that produces zero emissions. When the car stops at traffic lights, the engine stops so no energy is lost because there's no idling.

    yea but something has to generate the electricity, renewable power could do it but at the moment they would probably use power from the mains which is generated from fuels such as coal.

    it takes energy to compress air but the amount of energy to compress air compared to the amount of energy petrol powered cars use is alot less. We're still going to be needing to generate energy but just alot less.

    The catch is that people think there's a catch. After 3 generations of people putting gas in their car, it's tough to change their thinking.
