1. PRESENATION ON
COMPRESSED AIR CARS

2.  These
days our world is facing fuel crisis
and air pollution.
 The primary fuel we are using is gasoline
which is expensive and non-renewable.
 So an alternative for gasoline has to be
adopted. Compressed air serves this
purpose.

3. Air powered cars are
powered by air engine
which uses compressed
air as fuel.

4. Compressed Air Tank
Air Filter
Body
Chassis
Engine
Electrical System

5.  Located underneath the vehicle
 Made of carbon fibers.
Hence safe to risk of explosion
 Holds 90 cubic meters of air,
compressed to 300 bars.

6.  Before compression, air must be filtered to
get rid of any impurities.
 The Exhaust pipe on the Air
Powered Cars produces
clean air which is cold on
exit and harmless to human
life.

7. Its body is made up
of FIBER GLASS and
INJECTED FOAM.
It is slightly costly ,
but it does not cut
like steel.
It does not rust.
It is light weighted.

8.  Highly
resistant, Light, Aluminium Rods glued
together.
 Aluminium rods Enables to build More ShockResistant Chassis than Regular Chassis.
 The rods are Glued
the Same way as
Aircraft.
 Allows quick assembly.

13.  Single Energy Mode:
It uses only compressed air. The maximum
speed is 110 km/h.
 Dual Energy Mode:
It uses compress air as well as gasoline.
The engine can switch from compressed air mode
to fuel mode.

14. MODELS
Pick up car
Van
Family car
Taxi
Minicat

15. CHARGING METHODOLOGY
The recharging of the car
will be done at gas stations,
and takes about to 2 to 3
minutes at a price of 135
rupees. After refilling, the
car will be ready to drive
200 kilometres.

16. ADVANTAGES
Easy to refuel at service stations
 Cost of production is less
 Pollution free
 Maintenance is easy

DISADVANTAGES
 It has relatively less speed
 Refueling at house takes 3-4 hours

17. CONCLUSION
On the whole, Air powered cars is a realization
of latest technology in automobile field. The air
car is a clean, easy to drive, light weight and high
performance car.
The Air Powered Engine technology is cheaper
in cost and maintenance, can be easily adapted by
the masses and it doesn’t cause any kind of harm
to the environment. Instead, its widespread use
will help mankind in controlling the serious
problem of global warming.
