Wind Car

Hi all just watching national news, they mentioned a wind powered car.
They use wind turbines to charge batteries overnight, as well as hanging the odd kite out to help power it up.

Sounds cool. But the Kite power will be difficult in US unless in the midwest where it is open most places. But the idea of wind charging is great.

There is a similar thread about this found here.

I find it interesting that they decided to use an LEI to power their car.
