Đọc hiểu rồi chọn đáp án đúng Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner and more economical than their predecessors, but the car of the future will be far more pollution- free than those on the road today. Several new types of automobiles engines have already been developed that run on alternative sources of power, such as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol,steam,hydrogen,and propane.Electricity,however,is the only zero–emission option presently available.
