Will they just Hum along and sneak up in unsuspecting pedestrian?
with hydrogen looking more and more like a big white elephant... batteries being heavy and expensive
where does that leave us when oil is no longer an option?
one proposed answer is the Methanol economy
Methanol can be used with existing internal combustion technology or can even be used as a more dense Hydrogen source in a Methanol fuel cell...
"but this is still burning stuff so its not clean"
Methanol can be obtained from a wide verity of sources most importantly it can even be made from CO2 in the air... yes i said fuel from air :rollsmile:
this allows us to recycle the pollutants our cars make to make more fuel and setup a sustainable car 'eco system'
maybe the future of the car will not be as boring as we think it will be... considering where Methanol is used today in combustion engines:
