I heard about a car that run off compressed air, does anyone know much about it?

Thanks Ecopreneur. What is airtricity -- do you mean Ecotricity? I'm researching electric cars for an informal car club (which I helped start) - are there any out that do more than 100 miles yet without needing a charge?

Consider electric cars for a real earth friendly drive

You can save up to the 1.4 tonnes of CO2 per year * based on airtricity and even if you charge it with the national average mix it comes down to 65 grs of CO2 per kilometer.

a Prius driven in "ideal conditions" does 106 grs ..

be delighted to answer questions about it if anyone is interested
