That is incredibly interesting! I wonder if there's any criteria on how clean the saltwater needs to be? Like, distilled, deionized water with X% salt content, kind of thing. How likely is it that you can find the right kind of water and salt at a random stop somewhere?

I love that they made it look like an actual nice car and not an oddity like a lot of electric cars. The one downside that I could see would be that there's no way you could get road head with that center tunnel in the way.
