The car still needs a small amount of petrol to run, and unleaded petrol is used to star the engine and get it to a certain temperature, once this temperature is reached it then switches to the bio-gas.It certainly seems like an interesting solution to powering vehicles, although I am not sure I would want to drive around in a car powered by human waste.Source<a href="http://blog.sndn.org/2010/08/06/volkswagen-bio-bug-car-runs-on-human-waste/" target="_blank">http://blog.sndn.org/2010/08/06/volkswagen-bio-bug-car-runs-on-human-waste/</a></blockquote>
