\nAlternative fuels are an answer to a greener tomorrow, that\u2019s if these fuels really are that efficient and easy on the pocket. In what seems to be a complete waste of caffeine, the Teesdale Conservation Volunteers of Durham,
England<\/a>, developed the Coffee Car. Basically a caffeine-obsessed set of wheels<\/a> that uses coffee to power up instead of gasoline, the car touched 66.5mph setting a Guinness World Record<\/a>. Using a fuel called Syngas made up of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane created by introducing steam to coffee beans with temperatures at 700C (1292F), the car seems to be a nasty waste of steaming brew to us.<\/p>\n
