Tata planning to deliver compressed air car to market


This car is really amazing. The car runs on compressed air and can travel over 100 miles on a tankful. Only costs a few bucks to fill the tank as well. From what I understand the automobile will cost less than $10,000.

I hope Tata really delivers on this capability and it could turn the entire automobile industry upside down!

We need solutions like this! They could use some improved styling on the car but hey this is their first version!

Dutch scientist says software can cut car fuel use

This is an example of an incremental change easily implemented that can cut fuel use anywhere from 2.5% to 6% and on a global level that would amount to a lot of fuel saved and emissions reduced.

It is too bad that the automotive manufacturers are still stuck on combustion engines. We really need to switch sooner rather than later.
