GM CEO: "This New Engine Will CHANGE The World!"
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
EV enthusiasts beware, GM has just announced their all-new 0-emission engine that will make electric and internal combustion vehicles obsolete! This all-new radical technology is said to be the next revolution in the automotive world and will drive us towards a completely eco-friendly future of cars! GM has been searching for an alternative to EVs for years now, and their search has led them to the all-new compressed air technology! Compressed air has already been seen to be of limited use in the 19th century, mostly with mine locomotives and trams in some European cities, the most notable of which is Paris. However, the technology has since been dropped and forgotten in favor of internal combustion engines, because of their immediate potency. However, in the early 2010s, the French Car manufacturer, Peugeot, saw the potential in combining compressed air with internal combustion engines into an all-new hybrid technology that retains the eco-friendliness of a regular hybrid, without needing a battery! While these prototypes didn’t really move far from the testing stage, they did spark a fair bit of interest from the rest of the automotive industry, most notably GM.
So, let's not waste any time and check out this new way of thinking as GM CEO announces This New Engine That Will CHANGE The World!

The best AIRMOTOR is already developed by EngineAir Australia, a redesigned "rotary Wankel airmotor" invented by Angelo Di Pietro. This rotary Wankel airmotor can be used as a wheel-hub airmotor to power 2 wheels or all 4 wheels. It is fully achievable to use new failsafe CFC air pressure tanks, holding 20,000 psi or more, to power a typical sedan up to 1000-mile range per fill-up. GM Cadillac AERA concept car, 2010, L.A. Auto Show, was a luxury concept but cars for everyday use could use this excellent technology just as well. In addition, the "rotary Wankel airmotor" designed by Angelo Di Pietro can also be used to power VTOL Aircraft for similar long range and efficiency.

When I was a kid, my uncle described a similar concept to me. I didn't think it was possible back then.
A French company came up with this idea in 2004. Moteur Development International. It had a 110 KM/H top speed and a range of 200 Kilometer.
I like the idea, as a solution to range problems a car could have a compressor powered by anything, electric, gas , hydrogen, making the storage tanks part of the cars structure would save weight, also the stored energy from braking could be used to compress air, making it like an electric hybrid, as far as power, the sky is the limit they could make amazing power for a short time, a vane type engine would be able to turn very high RPMs, less moving parts, my 1/2 inch air drill has a lot of power, just make it 10 times bigger
Just like hydrogen, the problem is where do you get the fuel or in this case the compressed air? In Britain, there are 16 hydrogen filling stations compared to 3000 for gas and diesel. Is GM going to build thousands of air compressors all over the country where drivers can get compressed air? And how much would it cost to get the compressed air since its obviously not free.

It's silly. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, and can be made easily. It's also completely carbon emission free when burned. The biggest problem with hydrogen fuel cells is they are very dangerous in a collision. Diesel is very stabil and will not explode without high atomization and compression. Gasoline, as a liquid, is non-flammable. Only it's vapors are explosive. Hydrogen, on the other hand is highly reactive, which makes it unstable. Here in the states we have some trucks and busses running on the stuff, but for anything smaller than a large truck it would probably be a severe explosive hazard on the freeway. Thus the reason I don't see hydrogen fuel cells being the wave of the future.

OK 1. where is the compressor going to be, because it's going to take up a lot of room, in order to compress enough air to even make this viable 2. Air compressors still need oil for lubrication, that oil is mystified into the air, that's going to discharge into the atmosphere, so there is still going to be emissions. that also means, besides the air tanks you're going to have to have, you're going to need an oil reservoir. 3. this has been tried before, and it was not feasible, sooooo

In Holland there is a company that rebuilds the motor of existing motors, thats much cheaper than a new one like this and more ecofriendly
How about combining the Ammomia engine prototype with compressed air tech?
I think it makes more sense to use compressed air to spin a turbine that charges a battery that powers an electric motor. Essentially you can have half the battery the Tesla would give you and three times the range. The compressed air becomes an extension of the battery essentially. Imagine filling your tank with compressed air in less than a minute, and you're on your way. I'm sure the compressed air would be much cheaper than gas too. I just don't see how using the compressed air to move the car is viable. There's just not enough torque or horsepower. A car without balls will not sell in the US. Maybe in San Francisco but that's about it.
It takes energy to compress the air! It's not free, it's just storing the energy differently.
This won't change a damn thing when people can't afford it, forcing them to use older cars that pollute everything.
America's biggest problem is the federal reserve...
An air tank connected to a tesla turbine with a breaking system that puts air back in the tank. There's your engine and transmission. "Gas stations" provide the compressed air for purchase. It's not 100% "green" of course but this would definitely be "greener" and a lot cheaper than anything available today. Prove me wrong. Please.
Remember that "big oil" is very instrumental in seeing to it that nobody messes with their profits. That message was clearly stated in Dallas, Texas, during the fall of 1963!!!
Compressing your air will use the same electricity used to charge your car.
Sounds good to me. Instead of waiting for a battery to charge, we will wait for an airtank to fill up which as any SCUBA diver knows causes heat which is energy lost. Instead of sitting on a fire hazard, we will be sitting on a potential bomb. Instead of some type of not carbon friendly energy source to produce electricity to charge batteries, we will have some not carbon friendly device to compress air. Instead of 300 mile range, we will have 100 mile range. Instead of trying to find a charging station that has a long line, we will have to find a compressor station that has a long line. Where do I sign up?
Isn't it amazing that with literally an endless supply of cheap natural gas you have practically no interest in taking advantage of it. Must be because there's not enough grift involved.
This just may change the world!! When GM spends more of it's money on technology that won't work and finally goes bankrupt, some other company will buy it and or merge with it and it's future products will change.

You would need a huge air tank if you dont have a compressor on board refilling it, you may get about 100 miles on a super large tank. You would have to have about 100 pistons to get enough power to drive the car forward fast enough. You would also need solar power, li-ion batteries to power a compressor to give your vehicle a few extra miles when you run out of air when away from an outside high-pressure air compressor. This would be difficult for someone to build at scale with a low price. But good for the environment if you don't blow yourself up.

How long will a lithium battery run a generator? But wait a minute, why woukd we use the lithium for air instead of just regular electic motor? Or even better why not just build gas cars . We have liquid gold under us, it cost less to drill oil than to mine lithium.
Until the drawbacks are addressed, this isn't even in the realm of the producible, let alone feasible. It is an amazing idea, though. Imagine if there was a way to capture and compress air within the car, making refueling obsolete.

So where does the energy come from to compress the air. Coal, gas, oil, nuclear ?
Interesting, but there are many better options. India has been operating compressed air vehicles for many years. The internal combustion engine is a century old technology that is quickly being replaced by better options. The current first generation of EVs shows promise, but are still lacking in range and performance, but lay the groundwork for better vehicles in the future. There are many developments that are not yet on the radar of the market or the investment community that will overtake Tesla and the legacy vehicle manufacturers in the US, Europe and Asia. The option shown in this video is not the best option and is not even close to what will soon be emerging on the market.

Oil giants wont be disappointed selling oil at 3x 4x 10xthen in past
Compressed air isn't free - it has to get compressed. So what's the advantage over electric cars?
Even years ago with these err engines, they tried over in India and other places they still required oil for the engine. What’s being used to lubricate the engine and it’s still required and alternative fuel in addition to air compression. So what’s being used here?
This is anything but a new concept and it's not the first time a successful prototype and finished product has been made. People do this all the time but they end up disappearing because big companies like GM don't like it when they aren't the first ones to do something. GM stole this from someone else.
Compressed air engines need energy also, If not, how did the air compress. Same with EV. Where does the Electricity come from? 68.9% of all electricity world wide comes from Oil and Gas. So, the vast majority of EVs are Gas powered with an electric storage instead of a gasoline tank. Additionally modern cars can last 2 MILLION miles. So the C02 is amortized over 2 million miles. EVs are lasting 70,000 miles. This results in each EV costing the environment 8~12 times the C02 per vehicle Manufactured.
This would be nice if it were able to become a reality but you know the big guys in the government won't allow it to happen as they would not be able to get any revenues from it.
This is what happens when people who know nothing about cars are put in charge of car manufacturing. Harley Earle is rolling in his grave.
The problem with numatic is how loud they are. What is going to compress the air? Another gas motor? Whats the point? Making Hybrids cheaper? Then you have to wait for your car to compress at every stop light. You run out of air, your screwed, your going so slow like 5 mph. How fast it compresses equals how loud as well. Imagine running a lawn mower all day its very deafinging. You need ear protection. Then you get into a wreck, the tank explodes and turns into a bottle rocket. Just to save EV juice? Then the tank explodes damages the battery causes a fire. Numatic engines are prown to rust and the engine will seize. Imagine a nasa under your car and fires away. Then the tires fly off and all the suspension because the tank explodes and you got a steam engine for a car. YOU Have to be a fireman to own a plumatic car. Electric motors have more efficency. Just add a solar panel to the car and call it a day than forcing customers to charge all day for a profit.
