Audi A7

Ed eccola qua la chiacchierata A7. Dopo averne tanto parlato, arrivano le prime foto spia del modello. Ad Ingolstadt non si sono nemmeno sprecati un po’ nelle decorazioni delle camuffature: hanno messo un bel telo marrone che rende impossibile scorgere anche solo un minimo dettaglio della nuova auto. L’unica particolarità che è possibile apprezzare è la forma del padiglione, davvero slanciata e quasi continuativa fra lunotto e parabrezza.

Genepax reinventa l’auto ad acqua

La notizia in Italia e giunta solo il 14 giugno (ufficialmente è andata in onda sul TG1), in verità è da circa una settimana che nella rete è stata lanciata la notizia con una pilotata azione di marketing.
Basta una semplice ricerca con google “Water Energy Sistem GENEPAX” per trovare molte informazioni, articoli, blog e discussioni nei forum internazionali.

Il sistema in se è molto semplice, l’acqua viene scomposta in idrogeno e ossigeno tramite una reazione elettrolitica e in seguito l’idrogeno viene utilizzato per alimentare una fuel cell che produce energia e nuovamente acqua.

La Genepax dichiara che con un litro d’acqua (salata o dolce non ha importanza) si produce abbastanza energia per muovere un’automobile per un ora e percorrere circa 80 km.

World’s Smallest Hummer

A mechanic was suffering so much from rising fuel prices that he built himself the world’s smallest Hummer lookalike which does 60 miles to the gallon.

Andy Saunders, 45, used five cars to create the tiny, eco-friendly version of the notorious, gas-guzzling US road beast.

The auto-alchemist now rides around in the vehicle that does 60 miles to the gallon - 54 miles further than the genuine Hummer.

The driver of a Bugatti Veyron supercar was nicked by cops after racing a Ferrari on a motorway at 130mph.

sQuba: the submersible car

World’s first real submersible car
In the 1977 James Bond movie ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, James dove below the waves in a sleek vehicle that moments before seemed to be an ordinary car. The only problem: the scene never really took place because it was an animation. Now thirty years after ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ hit the silver screen, the movie fake now becomes reality with the sQuba submersible car.
