Air Car

Story

So, aside from the fact that this car LOOKS ridiculous, I'm rather intrigued. Anyone know anything about this tech, how reliable it is, etc? I'm not a heavy producer of Smug, but this thing actually sounds kind of cool.

The only problem with that is at a top speed of 35 mph and other various items it's missing is it would not be legal to ride on streets.

Old news. Also, compressing air is less efficient than charging batteries, so it is worse for the environment than an electric car.

I'd hate to get into an accident in that tiny little thing.

drive around with a 3000(assuming) psi bomb under your ass? worry about air leaks? pay for air for "refueling"?

not to mention its all horribly inefficient and lacking compared to even electric cars.

no thanks.

how much energy is in the compressed air tank?


edit: how long before air hogs sues them?

This might be perfect for India, but probably not for the U.S., or at least not unless the technology becomes better and more efficient.
