NO

If they did exist

Cars powered by water would initially be a hybrid electric car , which will use hydrogen ions liberated from water into the cars &quot;gas&quot; tank, the resultant gas&amp;nbsp;would be from the exhaust&amp;nbsp;as steam.


It seems simple but due to the explosive nature of hydrogen gas, this big factor is best left for scientists and engineers to fathom.</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alternative-earth.blogspot.com/feeds/7671380013697019243/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alternative-earth.blogspot.com/2011/04/when-do-you-think-we-will-start-using.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1007739576454524520/posts/default/7671380013697019243'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1007739576454524520/posts/default/7671380013697019243'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alternative-earth.blogspot.com/2011/04/when-do-you-think-we-will-start-using.html' title='When do you think we will start using water to power cars?'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxNswoM6vpGYgjQ9k4MG7XLU9kD1SC_KGjqubG7fT4UgMqoBf4s1JXmMSMOxD50d_ddFqYG1Liwxznmo__WwPmR-Lb3KOjAtLJIB5fK3MssRG14U1r35Cj_QgL4CZBSOlWsF2fvSzVVcM/s72-c/4386543592_f914452c20.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007739576454524520.post-7902789405596445184</id><published>2011-04-19T10:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-19T10:13:44.185-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="alternative earth"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="wind energy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="wind power"/><title type='text'>Where does wind energy come from?</title><summary type="text">Wind Power is usually split into two types, offshore and land based operations.
