The Air Car - zero pollution and low running costs

Cool! I want one of these! (The article was written using metric units and euros so I did the conversions for you.)

Most importantly, it is incredibly cost-efficient to run - according to the designers, it costs less than [$1.25] per [62 miles] (about a tenth that of a petrol car). Its mileage is about double that of the most advanced electric car. The car has a top speed of 68 mph.

Refilling the car will, once the market develops, take place at adapted petrol stations to administer compressed air. In two or three minutes, and at a cost of approximately [$2], the car will be ready to go another [120-180 miles].

As a viable alternative, the car carries a small compressor which can be connected to the [battery] and refill the tank in 3-4 hours.

Due to the absence of combustion and, consequently, of residues, changing the oil (1 litre of vegetable oil) is necessary only every [30,000 miles].

The temperature of the clean air expelled by the exhaust pipe is between 0 - 15 degrees below zero, which makes it suitable for use by the internal air conditioning system with no need for gases or loss of power.
