hydrogen car

Mazda is in the process of testing a car that runs on both hydrogen and gasoline (it’s a dual fuel system). They’re allowed to test the car on the public roads from Japan.

Mazda's newest hydrogen rotary engine will take to public roads in Japan for testing this year.

Honda’s first hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicle rolled off the assembly line today...

Japanese car manufacturer Honda has begun the first commercial production of a zero-emission, hydrogen fuel-cell powered vehicle.

The four-seater, called FCX Clarity, runs on electricity produced by combining hydrogen with oxygen, and emits water vapour.

With the latest rises in gas prices, many people find themselves unable to afford gas for their cars. Follow this useful tips to find out how to increase fuel efficiency

Independent tests conducted by engineers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory on the mono-fueled version of the BMW Hydrogen 7 prototype have found that the car’s hydrogen-powered engine surpasses the super-ultra low-emission vehicle (SULEV) level, the most stringent emissions performance standard to date.

Green vehicles are eco-friendly alternatives to regular cars because they produce less carbon emissions and require less fuel. This guide will give you an overview of the most popular green vehicles on the market.

Hydrogen-on-demand systems within the automotive industry may one day rock the world. If the current hydrogen on demand systems that are being developed pan out or if future hydrogen-on-demand systems take hold, this could mean that building a huge hydrogen gas infrastructure is not necessary. Read all about it.

This is a REAL car working with REAL water… through electrolysis. It seems that the re-mix of hydrogen and oxygen actually produces more energy than it takes to split them! Daniel Dingel from Philippines has made 100 motors work on water and wants to spread them to the world, so any country can reverse engineer it and make something better off it. It’s really amazing how we were taught since kids that water only kills fire… not always!

Hydrogen vehicle refers to a personal transportation vehicle, such as an automobile, that uses hydrogen as its on-board fuel for motive power, but can also refer to other vehicles, such as an aircraft, that use hydrogen in a similar fashion. The power plants of such vehicles convert the chemical energy of hydrogen to mechanical energy (torque) in one of two methods: electrochemical conversion in a fuel-cell or combustion :

* In combustion, the hydrogen is burned in engines in fundamentally the same method as traditional gasoline cars.

Anyone who knows me knows I get excited about inexpensive, renewable, and clean sources of energy. You can imagine my excitement when a reader emailed me with a video stream of a television news article about a car that "burned water" for fuel. When I discover this vehicle would go 100 miles on eight ounces of water, I had to know more. Unfortunately, after further research, the water-powered vehicle ran out of gas.

This is the Ballard vision of a hydrogen-electric car. I also think this would be the most efficient method of combining the silence and effectiveness of electricity with the power of an internal combustion engine ran on hydrogen.

You can always boost your car’s performance by adding a so-called “cell” to your car’s air input. This cell produces hydrogen through electrolysis of water impurified with baking soda, for example, or another electrolyte. The plans are easy to build at home during your weekend, and to test them on your carburretor or fuel-injection engine. More details on http://www.cars-and-trees.com/?p=26.

It's a video demonstration of a toy car powered by hydrogen as fuel. It is first transformed to electricity and then to mechanical energy. Watch it on http://www.cars-and-trees.com/?p=25!

A unique system that can produce Hydrogen inside a car using common metals such as Magnesium and Aluminum was developed by an Israeli company. The system solves all of the obstacles associated with the manufacturing, transporting and storing of hydrogen to be used in cars. When it becomes commercial in a few years time, the system will be incorporated into cars that will cost about the same as existing conventional cars to run, and will be completely emission free.
