Future Fuels
At FutureCars.com we focus on the how, what and why of cars of the future. Yet any vehicle that provides transportation requires a fuel, a source of energy to ‘make it go’. For all the many different technologies applied to cars, it is in the fundamental need for fuel where they all share a similar foundation. Without it, a car is little more than a place to sit.
Since the current oil-based fuels (conventional gas and diesel) are not adequate, long-term sources of transportation energy, research to find a replacement is wide-spread and vigorous. Yet in order for a new fuel to be considered a viable alternative, it has to adequately address a number of complex considerations, ones that are as diverse towards each other as they are interdependent on one another.
