AIRPod: A magical Air-Powered Car worth $10,000

Looks like the concern for public health and environment is increasing among people. The sudden springing up of this concern has led to many environment friendly steps like banning of plastic. Now it’s time to abandon your car and drive an AIRPod! Wondering what that is? It’s an eco friendly car that allows you to forget about petrol prices.

AirPod – MDI Cars – Tested on Tata Motors vehicles

Adding up to this is its small size and fewer prices which make your life easier in a metropolitan city. Imagine driving with a joystick that costs you not more than one euro per 200 kilometers. Can anything in this world get cheaper than that? AIRPod is the culmination of MDI studies on pollution & urban mobility and is the first of its kind and probably the only one for years to come. This is the only vehicle that weighs less than 500kg. Now you know why I called it the only one of its kind.

AIRPod is part of the MDI production licence of “less than 500kg vehicles”, and will be manufactured on original production concept proposed by MDI. MDI’s (Motor Development International) air engine technology is successfully tested on Tata Motors vehicles.

Q&A on MDI.lu’s AirPod with Cyril Negre 1 of 2:

If yours is a small nuclear family, the AIRPod is best suited for you. This car has four seats which can accommodate three adults and a kid. Since it’s a tiny car, it can accommodate itself anywhere which means you will never have parking issues. The small stature of the car makes it best suited for the private and public sectors. Airports, train stations and municipalities, the Post, factory handling and delivery roads and small logistics.

So? Don’t you want to own it? Well I guess for that you have to wait until it is released in the market and the price is announced!
