The San Jose-based Magnetic Air Cars Inc. claims that it is working on the world’s first fuel-less car. The folks at Clean Technica have seen a non-working prototype of the bad boy and they like what they see:
The Magnetic Air Car uses three on-board substations to harness
compressed air. The resulting airflow is channeled, modulated, and
converted to torque that propels the car.
According to company representative Paul Donovan, the car uses a
silicon salt battery that has 30% more mass power than a lead acid
storage battery and can charge completely within an hour. The 95
percent recyclable battery can also can be used in a temperature range
from -40 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius.
The vehicle should be ready for production by 2010. Wouldn't it be awesome if it came in the BMW GINA Light Visionary Model skin?
