  1. Quis custodies ipsos custodes? (Who shall watch the watchers?) What sad looks like.

  2. TESLA ROADSTER 100% electric 0 to 60 in under 4 sec 135 mpg equivalent 220 miles per charge

  3. Design Future

  4. MDI Compressed Air Car

  5. VW’S 1 LITER 235 MPG CONCEPT CAR. POWERED BY A 300 CC SINGLE CYLINDER DIESEL ENGINE WITH A CURB WEIGHT OF 639 LBS. IT CAN TRAVEL OVER 400 MILES ON ITS 1.7 GALLON FUEL TANK.

  6. CHEVY EQUINOX HYDROGEN FUEL CELL VEHICLE 150 mile driving range with 3 on board hydrogen tanks (10,000 psi).

  9. A Toyota 4Runner has a curb weight of 4045 lbs. Assume a person weighing 150 lbs. That is a vehicle to cargo weight ration of 4045 / 150 = 27 So, to transport one individual, you are providing fuel to transport 27 times that weight. THAT’S WHERE MOST OF YOUR FUEL GOES!!
