    no but I think the point was that the gas wasn’t compressed in the car, the same way the electricity wasn’t produced in the car, there’s no direct carbon emissions just indirect ones primarily from however that country is generating its electricity (as the air compressor that was used to charge it probably runs on mains electric)

      The plan is for the vehicle to have an air compressor on board, I don’t know if the vehicle in the demo has it though.

      But yes, compressed air is typically electricity with extra steps.
