I put this in Unaerodynamic because of the un-panted wheels.

5-year-old Phillipinos have their own Hummers?

The SMRT car doesn't strike me as un-aerodynamic.

The seating locations may have possibilities for aerodynamic cars.

This is not an aerodynamic car in my opinion, just terribly cute.

Air Powered Car


Quote:
Eco-friendly car designed by MDI is powered by a compressed air engine.

Non-polluting AirPod has enough room for three adults and one child. It is controlled by a joystick instead of a regular steering wheel.

Four-wheeled version is currently in development. It will be manufactured and sold by Indian company Tata Motors. Expected price is $10,000.

With a range of over 100 miles, and a cost of about $1.00 per tank of air for the cost of electricity to fill-er-up, the prospects are stellar for this cool car! *If you had a windmill powered air compressor, either mechanical or electric generating, you could fill up basically for free. *

Yep, better aerodynamics going backwards, what a terrible shame.

It's like a Cozy Coupe built by Scaled Composites.

Jimmy Built six-wheel steamer



Just A Car Guy: coolest car I saw today, the Jimmy Built, 6 wheel steam car, built from scratch. 300 ft lbs torque at 1 rpm. 7 hp.
  • 7hp boiler
  • 300lb/ft of torque at 1RPM
  • The redline is 160RPM.

That steamer might not be the most practical ride, but sure it's cool.
