  To all those who gripe about the vehicle, get over yourselves, no one is forcing you to get one. This by far is the greenest idea we have seen come to fruition. Regenerative air compression will not be far behind, and most likely will be available as an upgrade at a later date. Just Yahoo or Google AIR CAR

  Since soon the choice is sure to be clean cars or no cars, get used to it! Any way, 40 km is faster than riding a bike. Not to mention that this car is sure to be also more comfortable if you have to carry stuff.

  I think it's an excellant idea. The design is cool looking. Too bad someone will likely find a way to over price it for the average joe, like they did the smart car.

  It's good that people are out there searching alternatives to oil. When we get to the point that individual transportation is accomplished by non petrolieum related means then we will solve a lot of the worlds other problems as well

  Any vehicler, whether 2 wheels or six is only as safe as the driver and other drivers on the road. If you have been able to drive for ten years w/out an incident whats your worry. @#$% and bark. do your part and minor safty devices won't even be needed. daa!

  A fellow (Fran McCabe) here in Bucks County Pennsylvania put together a prototype air powered gocart about 7 years ago. Fran has always been ahead of his time. This looks like a winner.

  If this thing really hits 40 MPH it is a death trap, but if it actually only goes 40 Kilometers-PH maybe we can put inflatable bumpers on them and play bumper cars :) If that's the case everyone should get one. Imagine that ride home from work...

  You know if we look hard enough for the bad in all these new green ideas nothing will ever be good enough. Stop whining and support new ideas or let this mess we have made kill our grandchildren with horrible new diseases.
