Greenbird, the windpowered car, designed by Richard Jenkins reached 126.1 mph, breaking the previous record of 116 mph set by Bob Schumacher in 1999.How it Works?
The Greenbird, like all other wind powered vehicles, works by harnessing the airflow. "It's part aeroplane, part sailboat, and part formula one car." It uses a solid wing instead of a sail, and it's wings work with the same concept as an airplane's wings.
