Its a heck of an ugly car on the outside. Beautiful on the inside though as this car runs on air with Zero emmisions. Get your electricity to compress the air from a green supplier and this car could also be beautifying the environment, accept for when your looking at it.
Hopefully though, in time they will give it a makeover as they perfect the engine that runs on air
Bravo!.

    I've been promoting this on many websites and in many discussion groups for years.

  • I've heard about this when it was a concept. I'm glad it will go to full production. Unfortunately, it will only be sold in India and France. I want one here in California.

  • I am wondering how noisy it is. But the fuel concept is great!

  • You still need electricity to compress the air...

  • Photovoltaic cells on the roof will provide the electricity you need to compress the air. And if you have photovoltaic cells on the roof of your house, they will also provide plenty of electricity to compress the air when your car is at home.

  • So if you had an air compressor and an electrical storage unit mounted in the car you would never have to buy fuel of any type,ever!That is totally awesome!!

    So what do you think the chances are that someone here in the U.S. came up with this idea too and the BIG 3 along with BIG OIL quashed it?I'm thinking the odds are pretty decent.Just a thought.

  • Well, on a rainy day you might need to use electricity from the grid to compress the air.

    An Australian inventor also invented a compressed air car, his system differs from Nègre's system and is quite viable too.

    Dmitri - something like this could be adapted and installed in the air-driven car so as to compress air into one tank while one is using the other tank, along with a windmill type installation at the front taking air in as one drives and which would feed a dynamo which would also add electricity to the on-board compressor.

    Excerpt:

    The Solar-PowerPAC is a lightweight (22 lbs.) portable or stationary, backup power unit that provides you with the type of electricity available from the wall outlets of your home (120 volts AC) and the type of power that is supplied by the battery of your car (12 volts DC).

    The PowerPAC is a complete power solution offering you more features and benefits than any DC-only power sources or jump-start products available. It runs small appliances and equipment at home, in your office, vehicle, camper or boat. Use PowerPAC whenever or wherever you need 120VAC or 12VDC remote or emergency power. With its built-in utility light and 250 PSI air compressor this unit is extremely flexible.

    Power DC or AC appliances. Just plug into the 12-volt DC or 115-volt AC outlets and you've got instant, reliable power. The built-in inverter allows you to run appliances with a wattage draw of up to 300 continuous watts. The inverter has a surge capability of over 500 watts. The inverter also features a low voltage alarm and low voltage shut-down if the battery runs too low. This protects your devices and the battery from being discharged too low.

    The built-in battery has a 21 amp hour capacity and is charged using the supplied solar panel, your vehicle, the 12-volt battery charging outlet on your generator, or an existing AC wall outlet. You can inter-connect a larger battery or add another solar panel if you want more available power for remote uses.

  • Well do we have enough air for every one to have one of this, really think what air propulsion can do.

  • what could we do help this technology catch on ?
