Like most hovercraft, the Volkswagen Aqua uses more than one engine. The
primary motor, which is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, is used to drive the
main fan which inflates the skirt around the vehicle and raises the Aqua just
above the ground. The fans at the rear of the vehicle are powered by individual
electric motors to provide forward thrust and directional control. The styling
of the Volkswagen Aqua is extremely clean and simple. There's very little
clutter to the lines, except perhaps at the rear due to the quartet of fans. The
interior has room for two people, and features a similar minimalist vibe as the
exterior. Perhaps our only area of concern is with how you actually enter the
vehicle. See that small round hatch at the rear of the vehicle, the one located
where the rear window would normally be? That's your one and only door."
