"......The air car can tool along at a top speed of 35 mph for some 60 miles or so on a tank of compressed air, a sufficient distance for 80% of consumers to commute to work and back and complete daily chores."
I'd love to have an alternative fuel car, but this one looks like it was designed by my 6 month old granddaughter. Also, I'm not convinced of the safety in driving around a 4000-psi bomb in my car. I say, "Back to the drawing board".
I would love to see the crash test ratings on that, especially pitted against a heavy vehicle instead of just crashing with it's own weight. Also, while the range COULD be acceptable purely for commuting, the top speed is not. Maybe we can add a steam engine as a power booster
Interesting idea none the less. I think electric cars are going to be more mainstream though.
