1.Air Stations –Time taken to refill can be from one to three minutes depending on the vehicle:

The air is compressed in tanks at the air stations using a multi-stage compressor.  The stored compressed air is transferred from the air station’s tanks to the vehicle’s tank).  

2.Electric plug –Time taken to refill can be from 1h 30 mins to 4h 30 mins depending on the vehicle:  When the vehicle is equipped with an onboard refilling system, the refilling of its tanks can be carried out by connecting them to a domestic electric plug.

CHASSISChassis of this car is made by mixed wire netting frame, using tubes and foundry parts, assembled with glue.The plates  obtained from foundry are linked by aluminum tubes . The unit is glued using epoxy adhesive, a bi-components coming from the aircraft industry used to assemble structures. For the ‘low cost’ cars (standard One Flow AIR), a single molded piece is used for the  technical base, the seats and the external body is used as the frame.
