Air Car by Guy Negre on CNN
Guy Negre of MDI’s Air Car engine that runs on compressed air. Emissions are only filtered air that’s cleaner than outside air. 300 bars of pressure in carbon-fibre & kevlar air tanks. Car can travel at 110 km/hr and has a 150 km driving range. Refilling can be done by plugging in at home or at a special high-pressure air station. Dual-energy models use small amounts of bio-fuels that can extend the range to over 1400 kms.
Pollution free vehicle that produces zero emissions. When the car stops at traffic lights, the engine stops so no energy is lost because there’s no idling.

Sorry but these …
Sorry but these evil arseholes have been conning money round the world for nearly two decades. I look at them as stealing from people who could invest in green technology but due to a lack of knowledge chuck money at MDI.
I’ve fought them for so long and have to constantly point out to nitwit reporters the huge holes in the MDI claims I’m now WAY bad tempered so it’s full attack always, especially if you imply I’m wrong.
Really appreciate you did read a bit further. I raise my cap to you.
Sorry, I misread it …
Sorry, I misread it…
I’m also sorry you get ed for a almost no reason…
CAN”T YOU READ? …
CAN”T YOU READ? Google “Vencat 20 Miles”
$5 for 20 miles THAT’S THE NUMBERS PROVIDED BY THE USA DISTRIBUTOR YOU ING IDIOT.
Not made up crap by that French con artist to impress brain dead reporters to get more suckers to buy licenses.

fizz guts doesnt know what he saying. i was just watching this on history channel and it cost $2 to run 106mpg
If the car gets hit …
If the car gets hit and opens the air tanksl rip open. How is that a danger to anyone.
super flop …
super flop technology

About $5 to go 20 miles. Depends on what electricity costs where you are
Google Vencat 20 miles for the background numbers
what does it cost …
what does it cost to fill up the tanks?
Try googling …
Try googling something like “spanish investors guy negre” and you’ll find out.
Isn’t this present …
Isn’t this present crisis and the exhortations of governments to beleaguered car makers to produce more enviromentally efficient vehicles the perfect opportunity to lauch this marvel?.
Why aren’t they?.
I’ve forgotten more about these free-energy and air-car scams than you’ll ever know. Grow up.
Have you calculated …
Have you calculated the energy stored in superheated water vs steam.
Do you know there is a burner under the boiler on a Stanley? It provides the energy not compressors.
Google vencat 20 miles for the latest train wreak
Any one heard of …
Any one heard of the Stanley Steamer? In 1906, the Stanley Rocket set the world land speed record at 205.5 km/h (127.7 mph) on compressed steam. (Much like compressed air.)
“Friendly”? It …
“Friendly”? It wasn’t meant to be. This isn’t Sesame Street. Harden up. I replied with out sarcasm and with a bit of humour to a notion so stupid it instantly hung a twerp label round your neck. My guess is you subsequently went to someone you know with science or engineering background and they told you the same. Now you are complaining about the messenger and delivery. Get over it.
Here’s your first …
Here’s your first reply to me.
“If it were efficient enough we would be able to drive indefinitely”
No you want it to produce more energy than is put in. That is as daft as saying lets roll the car down a hill and if the bearings are more “efficient” it will roll back up a higher hill. BEEEP wrong answer. Do some reading on conservation of energy before you waste any more time.
Daft. Waste any more time. Now to me that doesn’t seem like something most people would see as “friendly”.
My first post was …
My first post was to the point, with out any sarcasm. I might as well talked to a rock. Based on that experience it is obvious the only way to communicate with you is to rub your nose in it firmly. Repeating I didn’t make you feel like an idiot. You made an idiotic ertion and continued to defend it. Your choice.
If I wanted to …
If I wanted to dodge you, I would’ve never replied to you in the first place. Make sense? I would consider your point if you didn’t include unneeded hostility in your comments. You think I like it when people attempt to make me feel like an idiot? You think that makes me more inclined to consider your point? The 2nd paragraph of your recent reply is how you should consistently approach this sort of thing. Not with words like “daft” and “moose drool”. You see my point? Be kind, I’ll listen.
If you try and …
If you try and dodge me by hiding under a new comment repeating yet again nonsense you will be owned. I have no need to moderate my message to uneducated nitwits who will not consider the point but hide under the “it’s not fair” blanket. Tough. You made asinine statements. The error was pointed out. Stop whining.
The key point is the extra drag of the pumps will reduce range
“with the right mechanical knowledge” you would know your proposal is a 2nd order perpetual motion device
If at first you …
If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Right? Yeah, I thought so.
Quote “Meaning it …
Quote “Meaning it would run longer due to the EXTRA air that was pumped back into the engine”
Nope the extra drag of the pumps would reduce range. End of story
What part is this don’t you get. EXTRA DRAG because pumps are INEFFICIENT IT WON”T GO AS FAR
” I am SIMPLY saying that with the right mechanical knowledge, you could feasibly create some kind of compressor that will somewhat refill the air tank without creating any more strain on the engine”
Nope 2nd order perpetual motion BEEEP FAIL
I told you already, …
I told you already, bozo, You have no leverage. You’re going about this all the wrong way. If you’re trying to convince me of anything, you’ve successfully convinced me that you horribly lack social skills and have no idea how to present information in a way that is both appealing and adequately informative. You just throw your virtual weight around and hit me with insubstantial evidence of your arguments that get you nowhere but clung to my back. Be more friendly, maybe people will listen. : P

I am SIMPLY saying that with the right mechanical knowledge, you could feasibly create some kind of compressor that will somewhat refill the air tank without creating any more strain on the engine than the max passenger capacity.
If that sounds too unfeasible to you then I can understand why you’re making such a fuss about it.
Until you make what I’ve described and prove that it won’t work well enough to be practical, then I’m afraid your argument has NO leverage over my idea.
This is taken …
This is taken straight from wiktionary.
indefinite
1. Without limit; forever, or until further notice; not definite.
2. Vague or unclear.
3. Undecided or uncertain.
4. (mathematics) An integral without specified limits
See anything that rings a certain bell? Vague or unclear. Undecided or uncertain.
Listen buddy, I’m …
Listen buddy, I’m not stupid. I know perpetual motion doesn’t exist and goes beyond the known laws of physics. I never once said, “Hey. I know how to make this car run forever!” now did I? Now quit being a fool a think about what I’ve said. If I wanted to imply perpetual motion I would’ve said something like “I can make this car replenish it’s own air tank completely and continually!”
Yes moose drool. …
Yes moose drool. It’s not possible. Never has been and will always be impossible. It’s not my fault you brain is locked in a box of your own ignorance. There is no way. It doesn’t exist. Many, in fact most of the innovators throughout history were laughed at by the ignorant but were clever, educated and thus could provide the breakthroughs the ignorant masses thought impossible. We’ll see who mocks in the end, a perpetual motion loony on youtube with millennia of failures to follow? Nope
