Default Hydrogen Fuel Cell is crap in comparison to Compressed Air!

:lol: The energy required to produce hydrogen, store it and transport it arent worth the effort since inneficiencies in this process build up to reduce the power yield from each litre used.
I am of course, referring to the new cars beind developed by General Motors and others. The look great, they have interesting body designs, but thier engines and fuel source are very inefficient.
Compressed air, however, is cheap and abundant.
Check out www.theaircar.com for more details.
Their cars are made of fibre glass (and some metal) to keep weight down and use a non combustable fuel source that can be created anywhere from just plugging a compressor into the mains electrical supply.
They are safe (air tanks dont explode), they filter the air (actally causing negative pollution), cheap to run (£1 to refuel) and have a decent speed and range (60kmh and 200-300km repectively).
They are likely to cost around £7000 so they are cheap to buy as well.
This is the future, not new hydrogen production and pumping stations, transporters and cars.
Just normal electric grid, standard air compressor and a car (which also has its own commpressor inside).
They are currently being produced for spain, france and south america so they aint just some fantasy.
Go get one NOW!
I rest my case...
