We constantly hear about the ills of fossil fuels – they pollute the environment, are costly to extract and refine, and at the rate we’re using them – they might run out in our lifetime. Now, however, other alternative fuels have been surfacing, there are cars that run on air, vegetable oil, algea, hydrogen, electricity or corn! Yet now, the people at QUANT have developed a sports-car that runs on sea-water! (and since our planet’s surface is over 70% water, it should last us for quite a while).

The e-Sportlimousine was unveiled on March, 2014, at the Geneva Car Show. |
