Re: TATA- AIR POWERED CAR IN INDIA
I did a case study on the TATA group when I was at uni and they are an amazing company with extremely deep pockets. They will take over the world one day. They are not only into cars either, you name it and they are into it. Froma cars point of view they also own Daewoo, Jaguar and Land Rover and have a joint venture with Fiat. They will soon launch their cars throughout Europe via their Jaguar and Land Rover acquisitions.

I thought GM owned Daewoo?

Good idea, but we've still got to burn fossil fuels to compress the air.
With a range of only 125 miles it would be interesting to see how much fuel needs to be burned to create 400L of air @ 4200psi.
