However, environmentalists say that the process of refining the sulfur-free fuel it runs on generates twice the greenhouse gasses as does refining conventional diesel. Still, engineers say, diesels, in any form, are not going away. Believe it or not, the Power Wagon could make it into production. It could actually see production by 2004 if costs come in line with current luxury truck pricing. It's a concept car that demonstrates the performance potential of natural gas, one of the cleanest fuels available today.
People love the muscle cars, especially the big wheels and the fenders.
People love the styles. The powertrain is a 4.7 liter, supercharged V8 generating 325 hp and 320 foot-pounds of torque. But the real interesting thing about this vehicle though, is that it runs on Natural Gas. In this particular case, we're developing a system that can replace the fuel tank, so you have CNG and you'll have your trunk space also.
