Default Air-Powered Cars May Hit America Soon

Auto Loan Daily - Air-Powered Cars May Hit America Soon

Quote:
A compressed air vehicle, or CAV, may find its way to America within the next few years. The CAV will use compressed air to move the cylinders of the car’s engine the same way the explosion in a traditional gasoline engine does. Zero Pollution Motors, the company that makes the CAV, says it will be able to meet even the most strict future emissions standards because it emits no pollutants.

There are already plans for air-powered cars in India, where Tata, the company that recently bought Jaguar and Land Rover, is planning to build the cars in the near future. The company plans to franchise production in the United States. A CAV seller would buy a turn-key operation for about $15 million, capable of producing 8,000 cars per year. The company says the price for the cars will be about $20,000.
