Its a car powered by air! The awesomely green company MDI (Moteur Developpment International) devised some kind of piston engine that uses compressed air. Zero emissions depending on if you use the gas engine. Large range. Sounds like a good idea and something that could be put to use. I wonder how much power you could get out of one of those?
On the other hand, now that I think about it, it uses a gearbox and probably axles and the such. That seems like it will take up lots of space and limit design, just like a combustion engine. I prefer less intrusive designs, like in hub electric motors which frees up lots of space where the engine would be.
But an excellent zero emissions idea this is, if not the best one I've seen yet.
