A Japanese venture company, Genepax, has unveiled a car on that runs on water. All it requires is a litre of water. In fact, any kind of water to be exact, whether its river, rain, sea water, or even Japanese tea. Its an electric powered car that runs solely on hydrogen dioxide.
"The main characteristic of this car is that no external input is needed. The car will continue to run as long as you have a bottle of water inside for you to add from time to time," said Kiyoshi Hirasawa, Chief Executive Officer of Genepax, after he proudly announced the company's invention.
Once water is poured into the water tank at the back of the car, the newly invented energy generator takes out the hydrogen from the water, releases electrons and finally generates electrical power.
"We highly recommend our system since it does not require you to build up an infrastructure to recharge your batteries, which is usually the case for most electric cars," said Hirasawa, who is hoping to advertise the car in time for the upcoming G8 Summit in Hokkaido, Japan.

The blurb states that the car runs on "nothing but water".
Water is not a fuel source. Simple chemistry dictates that energy is needed to release hydrogen from it's bonds in an h20 molecule.
So to split the hydrogen from the water, you have to add the same amount of energy as the energy produced when the hydrogen is recombined to drive the car. Energy out equals energy in. No free lunch- otherwise known as the first law of thermodynamics.
