 Fossil Fuel crises will be the next one to affect us. Automobile makers have been spending billions of dollars to find alternate fuels and to design vehicles for them. BMW, the University of Bath and several other European institutions have joined hands to work on the Clever Project.

The Clever is a small compact car perfect for city conditions. The vehicles looks like a cross between a chopper and a UFO. It runs on compressed natural gas. The compressed natural gas is stored in two cylinders kept behind the passengers seat. The vehicle has very low level of emissions and is environment friendly. The Clever sports a 230 CC natural gas engine. It has an aluminum space frame and a plastic body.  This makes the vehicle ultra light at just 395 KG. With onboard fuel the vehicle can cover a range of more than 200 KM. It has a computer on board to control its hydraulics. This amazing vehicle is capable of achieving speeds up to 80 miles per hour. As and when commercialized this amazing vehicle will contribute significantly towards reducing pollution.
