Here’s a really cool car even though the concept sounds a bit far fetched but seems a professor in Japan has created a car that runs on water, talk about cheap, easy attainable fuel.

The company responsible for the car is called Genepax. The hi tech car works by extracting the hydrogen from the water that is poured into the cars tank. Electrons are then somehow released producing electricity to power the motor.

The company does have plans for this concept car with plans to mass produce the water car.

Fake Rolls Royce

It seems that the company that makes the Rolls is not too happy with China car manufacturers. The 2009 Shanghai auto show showcased a copy of the Rolls Royce for a retail price fractions of the original. The copy cat Rolls is priced under 50k and looks so similarthat it may fool anyone who doen’t work for Rolls. The fake Rolls is called the Geely GE and it is reported that Rolls has their lawyers on the case. I bet they do.

Homemade motorcycle cars, well homemade as in created by individuals and not an auto manufacturer.  This one is in Italy and looks like someone took a bike and enclosed it. The tiny little side tires look like training wheels and really need to go. If it wasn’t for the training wheels, this bike would look really sweet.

Rocket bike car

The Baron Margo Rocket Car is a creative mix of bike / car and… a rocket. Now, I’m not sure if the rocket part of it really works. That would be a bit scary if it did, would not want to be behind him at a light.
