TATA makes Air Powered Car!

The idea of a car being powered by compressed air is nothing new, and while the concept and idea have been around for many years, it was never deemed feasible, and therefore never actually looked over and developed. Well, now, Tata Motors is set to chance that, as the Indian automaker is developing a very cheap compressed-air-powered car.

Using a special prototype, Tata have announced that they were able to boost the existing range of the vehicle as much as 200 km or 125 miles, before needing to be recharged. Despite being cheap and very efficient to run (only costs the equivalent of 3 Euro Cents per mile), it will be a joystick-driven modern machine, which has a top speed of 80 km/h or 50 mph – exactly the same as other small city-oriented green cars, like the Renault Twizy.

Tata has not given an exact date for when the car is to be launched. Expected Price €7,000
