I am not a believer in that hydrocarbons are so damaging to the environment, but if this technology pans out, it could be interesting.

My concern would be cold weather performance, being Canadian and all.

Interesting, but apparently the inventor has been labeled a scam artist.

Looks cool but how would it tow my #12,000 boat compared to my 6.7?

The Marxist Muslim carbon issue is merely an attack on the developed nations intended to level the playing field between haves and have not... In the name of equity.

The carbon cycle is as old as the planet. Co2 makes everything green and consumes even more

Yup, they are scam artists

My lawnmower can mow a big yard 3 times and really chew it up with a battery the size of a cereal bowl..

If I can’t be your salty dog, I won’t be no dog at all.

It is not “salt water” but a chemical mixture.

In a few years, they will have cars running on something called “gasoline”

From the article:

“But, you won’t have to worry about charging this electric vehicle up after every trip. Instead, it just needs to be filled with the company’s bi-ION electrolyte mixture....”

Ah there it is “the companies fuel”......and they conveniently left out THAT cost.

I’m guessing it’s a little more than $2.50 a gallon. 😏

The original Model T had a lever oh the carburetor that would switch between gasoline and straight alcohol.

I've read that Honda sells...or has sold..a vehicle in Kalifornia that runs on hydrogen. I can't recall all the details but it sounded pretty interesting...far more interesting than EVs.

We need to save the planet. If everyone drove one of these we’d deplete the oceans...

We were about due for the latest battery break thru story, which I have seen rather regularly a couple times a year for some time now, never to be heard from again. Hope this works out.
An electrolytic capacitor is integrated into the electric vehicle’s starter system. During the starting process, this powers up the nanoFlowcell® 48VOLT electric drive. Once started, the nanoFlowcell® supplies the energy to four 60 kW low-voltage electric motors and the consumers in the 48-volts vehicle network. ... essential element is the suspended nano-structured bi-ION® molecules. - https://www.nanoflowcell.com/info-center/flow-magazine/one-who-can-do-what-no-other-can-do
The QUANTiNO is a bit under 154 inches in length, and sports enormous 22-inch wheels... two 46-gallon tanks filled with ionic fluid, with one tank positively charged and the other negatively charged. The two liquids would then sit on either side of a membrane, through which the electricity would then be created.
Competition Originally unveiled in 2010, Nissan->ke62 has moved 155,000 units as of December of last year, and that number appears to be growing even faster. For less than $30,000, this car obviously makes a lot of sense to a lot of people. Range is 75 miles per charge, while only 30 minutes are required to attain 80 percent battery capacity at public quick-charge stations.
As the main defender of hydrogen fuel cell technology, the [Toyota] Mirai is currently at the forefront of alternative drivetrains. In fact, demand has been so high, the Japanese automaker has had to triple production just to keep up. .... uses outside oxygen and compressed H2 to power an electric motor for 153 horsepower, with 0-to-60 times of around nine seconds. As for emissions, expect nothing more than heat and water vapor. .... Toyota->ke88 is sweetening the deal with free maintenance, roadside assistance, an eight-year/100,000-mile warranty, and three years of complimentary H2 fuel fill-ups. - https://www.topspeed.com/cars/zzz-others/2015-nanoflowcell-quantino/

Interesting chemistry that you could just continue to replace the electrolyte in a battery to 'recharge' it.

That would be like changing out the hydrochloric acid in a lead-acid battery and recharging the battery.

Never mind the continuing erosion of the lead oxide cell plates.

Electric vehicles are just one of the many solutions that engineers have been pushing as a way to cut down on global warming...

Stopped reading right there - someone who believes in the global warming hoax is not worth my time.
