According to what I have read they will go up to 60 MPH.

There are some very interesting details to the engine but I do admit the bodies on these aren't very appealing and look like they are fiberglass.

Just another alternative being worked. I think for city driving they would be fine. Not on a cross country trip.

Just my Opine...

Zim, we once had a fire right down the street. They were building trailers and a fire started. The torch was left in the building. About the time the fire was under control the gas bottle flew against a wall and almost knocked it down. Some folks that were watching thought that it was great because the fire went out with the explosion. I told them to wait for a minute. Then the oxygen bottle took off. The fire became so hot it melted some of the bricks. And both of those bottles did not have that much pressure in them. If the compressed air bottle lost pressure out of the end, it would probably punch through metal and anything or anyone that happened to be in the way. Propane, BTW, never was widely used because it can explode.
