Notable Models and the Future


Inside This Section:


The most exciting vehicle on the way is Tata Motors’ AirCar , which promises speeds of 68 mph and a range of 125 miles, and may be retailing for under $13,000. The electric pump recharges in 4 hours and the tank can be filled with compressed air in under five minutes.

One more such vehicle requires mention: the MDI e.Volution, by Zero Pollution Motors. This model is infamous largely because of the hype it was given back around 2000, prior to its disappearance. The vehicle generated a lot of enthusiasm and was featured on BBC and howstuffworks.com, among other places, but as of late 2007 has not yet materialized. The company’s web site , currently under construction, still pitches the vehicle.



What’s the future of compressed air cars?

With so much hype surrounding the battery electric and fuel cell vehicles, it can be easy to forget that when lined up against other technologies to see which is the most efficient, economical and environmentally friendly, compressed air cars not only hold up just as well, but they are also much further along in stages of development.
