See www.youtube.com for part two. A new type of engine to run on compress air. Part one of two. An update: in Feb 2007, Tata motor in India signed an agreement with MDI to use this technology. And in Mar 2008, Tata motor acquired Jaguar and landrover. Will there be an air powered Jaguar or Landrover soon? Your guess. Google "Tata Motor MDI" for more details.

Air car = OLD idea from the 1900′s and MDI’s implementation is WORSE than units built in the 1920′s and there is no way to improve it
Power = 5hp MDI figures
Only published test range = 5 miles
$13 million taken since 1998 no cars sold
NO independent confirmation of claims.
Awesome! Now, hire someone to design a body style that’s not ugly. We Americans will never adopt the technology unless it looks sexy.
eycan somebody rescue mehh from my loneliness really bored today
ugly car
humcant seem to find a man who ill treat me like a princess
All the green assholes can drive these little shit boxes I’m sticking with a real car.
Type “the gerson therapy 1/9″ on youtube. There are subtitles but don’t worry about it, it’s in English.
Check the gerson therapy for your sister, good luck.
Hemp is WAY to expensive to make fuel or fabric from currently
Aliens are only believed in by tinfoil hat wearing kooks
Who killed the electric car was a piece of crap aimed at mouth breathers. Battery life &$ means electric vehicles while environmentally wonderful are economic suicide hence my comment
There are many forms of cancer some have cures, some don’t. If you are implying my sister who will die of CML is missing out I’d love to find you and give you the same cancer.
There also was the EV1 in california. This actually made on the road, but General Motor only leased them (Tom Hanks and Mel Gibson had one). When the lease ended, they took it back without offering them to buy it. (Watch who killed the electric car.)
There is a cure for cancer (Run from the cure).
You can make everything from hemp and don’t need oil or plastic anymore (Hemporium SA)
Oh and the aliens are coming. (Disclosure project 2001).
How much longer are we going to be duped?
“this video was made 3 years”
Yep it’s an ongoing con that has roots back in the 1990′s google e.volution south africa for a 2000 example of lies opps promises
“you can reduce the size by making a nitrogen filter”
Bwahahaha Failed physics at school did you?
You want to spend large amounts of energy by sieving out nitrogen before you compress it which wastes more energy to give you umm well actually no difference in stored energy.
People, we need to spread the word, this video was made 3 years… what the fuck?
I’m still chocking on the gases produced by my city. Please, let other people know about this. My lungs are already collapsing.
you can reduce the size by making a nitrogen filter. it will use nitrogen because it is lighter than air, which makes the tanks able to hold more “fuel”. this also works because nitrogen makes up 80% of our atmosphere
I think all you folks need to realize that this technology has been around for 100′s of years, it has no potential to get any better and now this technology is only to empty the wallets of gullible technical illiterates
google rexreserch negre
PS if Guy negre dies suddenly .. it won’t take a rocket scientist to figure out something was fishy They killed the electric car .ELECTROVAYA a company in Toronto Canada that has a battery made of plastic they call a superpolymer that is five times as powerful as it’s closest lith ion rivals… I really wonder why the car is legal in europe but not legal in CANADA the country that makes the batteries … oh and they also power spacesuits for NASA …But no way could they be safe right ?
I think all you folks need to realize that this technology has been getting better by the minute and now this technology is ready for market. Try to get up to date and realize that there are plenty of other ways to make power , plenty of other means to generate electricity. Folks have been running on biodiesel, hho , pure electric , hybrids etc …There is a worry about Peak oil , but with the change over to more sustainable technologies, we will be able solve our energy crisis
it seems to me that this would be a natural development of the old school steam engine. Just as you can run a steam engine on compressed air, I wonder if this would be an effective engine coupled with steam power.
Sorry for calling you a stupid monkey. You are from the UK. That’s apologies enough for that fact.
Hey stupid monkey, the tech is starting out??? This shit already existed in 18th century.
The concept is a good idea???? Why????? It causes much more CO2 emissions than any other car and you only can store as much energy as compressed air to get a range of 8 km??? So what’s good at the idea????
‘there is nothing wrong with being open minded to a new concept”
True BUT that also requires critical and searching evaluation otherwise you get suckered by every green washing scam artist coming down the road.

i actually did read up on what you say and yes i do see some element of truth in what you say,
but there is nothing wrong with being open minded to a new concept and trying diifferent things.
people said TV would never catch on, look at it now.
“if you must know i actually scored pretty well in science (grade B higher paper),”
Glad you passed a test, pity you didn’t understand science, can’t apply it and haven’t bothered to study furthur. HINT ideal gas law
Have you noticed how you can only slag me off but can’t fault my facts on this stupid air powered CON?
Twas ever so for the true believer in non-science and woo
PS “so il leave you”
Yeah. Right. Bwahaha!
if you must know i actually scored pretty well in science (grade B higher paper), also as your amazing observational skills will have deducted english wasnt my best subject,
i will admit my grammer is a weee bit rusty, however my grammer can be improved over time
but sadly for you you will always be an selfasured arrogent prick and no amount time and effort wil be able to rectorfy that,
you must spend a lot of time argueing with people on hear,
all i can say is that is rather sad,
“im so so sure you are right”
good
“you have been blessed by an unparalled scentific geniuss that us mear mortals could only dream of possessing”
Nope BUT I can use a spell & a grammar checker & I didn’t sleep through the science classes at school. If you weren’t so mind bogglingly lazy you could follow the links provided & study physics, in particular the ideal gas law.
Unfortunately that requires work and believers in crap videos about crap ideas on youtube won’t do that.
