Wonder if they’ve heard about the moose test?

Air is a terrible way to store energy.

The electricity to create compressed air is far greater than you would get from just putting it in a car's high capacity batteries.

Does not look as if it will earn a 5-star crash rating. :biggrin:

Hey, $1 per 100 miles is very competitive with the cost of running an EV. Now if they could make a larger version with a higher top speed, it might become a good option.

Airpod is actually a clever acronym for "ain't going to happen."
