Incidentally TATA which has a stake in MDI is developing a similar system for the NANO

They just put like a few drops of liquid nitrogen into it and the motor ran for a really long time.. Cause when liquid nitrogen is brought up to room temp it produces nitrogen gas which is like 600 something times the volume of liquid nitrogen used!!

Thats similar to the cryogenic engine being tried on the GSLV |
