Er.. Wikipedia is rather accurate, unless you search up something stupid. People can't just post crap on it, you know, its reveiwed by people that know stuff. Its not that bad, better than somethings, I'd say.

To be honest, by electric: Cars have been made hitting 2 miles per hours with windmills. In like, the 1800's. Kind of a waste of time, though. Anyway, It doesn't matter, now, our new batterys can compete with oil. And that competition may end up doing good.

Electric cars cost more than gas ones do.

Because the sellers know that the buyer knows that the car saves the buyer money in the long run. So the sellers suck as much cash out of them as possible so they benefit.

They already have cars that run on air compressors.

Currently, they're powered by electricity.
Eventually, though, the compressors will also be powered by air.

So .. it would be an air-powered car.

Won't break any speed records, but you'll save a fortune on gas.

Acctually some of the cars in the early 1900's were electric. They were marketed to mostly to women, because the made little noise and were easy to start. They were overshadowed by the gas cars, and never took off.

And the petrol company will idly stand aside and watch.
Yeah, sure, that's gonna happen.
There were already (at least) 3 engines that were WATER powered.
The petrol companies bought the blueprints; so to be sure not to see them EVER.
Just like the invention of the light bulb, this could cause them an huge economical damage. And they are so filthy rich that they could pull anything that is not outright crime.
