RV Fuel Issues & Prices - Post 'Em Here!

No, the Air Car from India, was a tiny car that had a air tank that you filled before you left and it turned the wheels. The air hybrid (link below) is made by the large French auto company and is a true hybrid, but instead of heavy, expensive batteries to store energy, it starts off with a full tank of compressed air and then has a gas engine also. It runs in 3 modes controlled by a computer. air only, air and gasoline, and gasoline only. It uses brakes by using the energy to refill the compressed air tanks. It reduces cost by about 80% city and 50% highway. Basically like the Volt except cheaper, lighter, and more efficient. There is a lot of waste when converting to the battery and from the battery. Not here. Lots of private money behind it. There is a short video in the article below. Looks pretty good to me.
