laodan discovered 5 months ago- The Air Car in The Oil Drum by Big Gav
The Air Car was created by MDI (Moteur Developpement International) which is headquartered in Luxemburg, while the prototype factory is in the south of France. Originally conceived by former Formula 1 engineer Guy Negre back in 1991, the official names for the "Air Cars" are the OneCAT, CityCAT and MiniCAT. The OneCAT is expected to sit three or five people, with the MiniCAT and CityCAT models expected to follow. MDI recently signed a deal with India's Tata Motors, to build the air-powered vehicles in India. Zero Pollution Motors is looking to market the car in the US, and the Thai government has also invited Tata to manufacture the car in Thailand. A Colombian company (MDI Andina S.A) is also looking to produce the cars and sell them in Latin America. The Air Car A new agreement between Tata Motors and MDI bring the air-car closer to reality An elegant idea that has the potential to reduce drastically the input of energy into our transportation activities. Great. For sure you will still need electricity to fill the tank with compressed air but all in all the input of energy will be far lower. And the price could be as low as 8000 $... and the design is clearly French... It seems that the future has still some pleasant surprises in store for us.
