There aren't many cars powered by alternative fuels because some cost more and are hard to make and other fuels don't get you very far.

Which brands produce gas powered RC cars?
There are a few brands that produce gas powered RC cars. Some of these brands include Traxxas and Niko. One can purchase RC cars of this nature from Amazon.
Are there cars in 1848?
No. Cars as we know them today were first developed in the 1880s. The technology had to wait for the invention of the internal combustion engine and the availability of petroleum fuels. There were a few steam-powered vehicles but they weren't practical for road use. Steam engines were far more useful in trains and ships.
Can cars be solar powered?
Yes. These types of cars are called Hybrid Cars. No, Hybrids are dual fueled cars, not solar. The surface area of an automobile would not allow for the collection of more then a few hundred watts of power. A solar powered car would not move more then a few feet each day if street legal. There are some toy cars made to drive cross country. They are too light and unsafe to be street legal. Solar powered cars are not a possible technology currently and will probably never be.
What fuels can be grouped as alternative fuels?
"Alternative fuel" is an imprecise term that seeks to contrast certain fuels with what might called traditional fuels. Traditional fuels would include coal, oil, gas, and wood as a few examples. It is not possible to produce a definitive list of products but here are some suggestions. Carbon based alternative fuels might include ethanol from bio-mass, recycled bio-mass from agriculture or forestry operations, peat dug from soils rich in organic matter. Non carbon based alternative fuels include solar energy used to produce electricity or hot water, wind, waves, tidal energy, hydro-electric, hydrogen and more. Nuclear power can sometimes be considered to be an alternative energy source or a traditional one.
What is an alternative to using fossil fuels?
hydro energy.Nuclear energy, solar energy, wind energy tide and thermal energy are a few that come to mind.
What fuels do cars use?
For over 100 years, most cars have run on gasoline. At first there were very few gas stations, so many drivers carried cans of spare fuel with them. Cars with gas engines run more quickly than cars with steam engines.
Why do you use gasoline powered cars?
There are only a very few power sources that will provide the energy it takes to move a car. Diesel, Gas and nuclear are the only current possible choices. Nuclear has many people needlessly worried so that is out. That leaves us the other two fuels and many do not enjoy the smell of diesel (I own one). That leaves gasoline.
What statement about fossils fuels is not true?
Fossil fuels are clean burning and will not be bad for the environment. We will never run out of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are good for our health. These are a few that are not true about fossil fuels.
Types of fossil fuels?
Petroleum, coal, and natural gas are a few types of fossil fuels
How are some ways that we can help conserve fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources. Sources that may not be around forever if used so fast. A few ways to save these like gas is to: convert to solar energy, use electric cars, wind power, etc.

Objects powered by solar energy?
Mainly calculators but here is alot of things solar powered but here is a few: - solar panels - solar powered appliances - solar powered shades - solar powered water heaters - solar powered lights - solar powered roofs
