Compressed Air: Zero Emission Car. How much time do you think it will be on Mauritian roads?

Would be good to have such cars in Mauritius because the pollution is getting really bad, especially in P-Louis. Sometimes you feel suffocated in the city!

I doubt it's going to be anytime soon though but let's just wait and see.

A bomb ready to explode...but petrol is not less either.

Behind the scenes I already imagine the the industrialists corrupting scientists in order to make this vehicle disappear. What happened to the 'almost water-running vehicle'?

The price of filling air powered vehicles is significantly cheaper than petrol, diesel or biofuel. If electricity is cheap, then compressing air will also be relatively cheap.

Private bodies which depend on CO2 emission (amount of carbon dioxide a factory can release can be bought!) to make profits will inevitably die.

In a more realistic approach I think it will be available in almost a century on our roads.

It's not yet available in other countries, so let's add another 5-10 years to the official release date before we get it here in Mauritius. Actually the petrol companies might resist the commercial use of the vehicle because they'll go out of business.

I've read that it's not safe as well because the air is compressed to a high extent and it's like driving with a bomb ready to explode.

What's your take on it?
