The students of Maharishi Markandeshwar University, Mullana, Ambala, have developed the first of its kind tri-fuel car: TRIO. The car is cost-effective and environment-friendly.
The car can run on conventional fossil fuel, i.e. gasoline and LPG, as well as on electricity. The basic aim of TRIO is to reduce the cost of transportation and pollutant emission of the vehicle.
The TRIO will use petrol, liquefied petroleum gas and battery packs. It can run solely on any of these fuel sources. The usage of these different sources will depend upon the engine RPM, torque required and speed of the vehicle.
TRIO has an in-build generator to produce electricity.
The cost of running TRIO on various fuels are:
- Electricity @ Rs 0.83/km,
- Petrol @ Rs 3.2/km, and
- Gas @1.8/ km. [Source :Rediff]
We really do need such kind of cars in near future because of the effect of Global Warming. Another reason why we do need this car can be depletion of Natural resources.
Kudos to the guys who made this!
