The concept vehicle in the animation is a human-electric hybrid. You power the generator and the electric motor drives the vehicle. You can also drive it as an electric vehicle if you don’t want to or are unable to pedal your self.
This is my entry in the Innovate or Die contest http://www.innovate-or-die.com/ with just a couple of changes made. It took me about 40 hours non-stop to do this animation and I registered 8 minutes before the deadline.
I did the whole narration voice with Expressivo software. Worked really well, except a couple of words like ‘gigawatts’. My guess is that most people will not even notice it’s a synthesized voice.

The add-fuel light came on yesterday. So I went another 100 miles before I decided to fill up the tank. Total miles on this tank of gas was 1620 miles. The tank took 9.46 gals to fill. This works out to 171.2mpg.

A video by Plug-in Partners promoting the many benefits of Plugin Hybrids Electric Vehicles. If the current U.S. vehicle fleet were replaced overnight with PHEVs, oil consumption would decrease by 70 to 90 percent, eliminating the need for oil imports and leaving the U.S. self-sufficient in oil for many years to come. Even if the electrical power for those vehicles were drawn from coal-fired power plants, CO2 emissions would drop by more than half. If the power were produced by renewable energy sources, and the fuel in the tank were biodiesel or ethanol, the proposition gets exponentially better.
And you can get 100+ MPG!
