I mean you'd think this day in age the technology would be well beyond the point of creating a vehicle that runs on a more abuntant, environment friendly, and cost efficient material instead of gasoline and diesel.

There has, the problem is cost effective mass production. Also if they are too complex, who would repair them.

There are vehicles that have been made to run off of different oils and water. However the different oils that have been tested are very corrosive and so parts coming into contact with the oil have to be replaced periodically. With cars that run off of water, they are very combustible. The hydrogen and oxygen must be separated until the last minute or an explosion is very possible.

they doo have more environmentally friendly cars all the known car fuel types are, hydrogen genorators: use of water mixed with a speacial chemical that seperates hydrogen and oxygen molicules however leaving you riding on liquid oxygen wich is extremely flammable, solar power: the fuel type that requires a person to ride on alot of batteries and undre solar pannels wich get very hot in the day while charging your batteries, base electric cars: runs entirely on electric however yould you like youre electricity bill ater all the car charging that month so tell me what you think now.

Somebody did make a solar powered vehicle, I heard about it in grade school. I believe one of the big car companies bought the rights and since quashed the whole idea. I don't remember why that happened.

You mean something like a vehicle that would run on ethanol, (alcohol made from corn) for example, or maybe one that runs off battery power? Gee, I don't know.

manufacturers have other problems to worry about, such as how many cup holders the vehicle needs, and what fabric pattern to use on the interior.
