Many companies are presently researching the possibility of building hydrogen cars, and most of the automobile manufacturers had begun developing hydrogen cars. Following are some automobiles which use hydrogen as a fuel: Scorpion, 2008 It is a type of HICEV and a hybrid car manufactured by Ronn Motor. It runs on a combination of gasoline and hydrogen. Hydrogen 7, 2007 The car is motorized by a dual-fuelInternal Combustion Engine-Liquid Hydrogenand is manufactured by BMW. It’s a limited produced hydrogen vehicle which directly ignites the hydrogen in its internal combustion engine. H2R, 2007 H2R ("Hydrogen Record Car") is a type of HICEV and one of the initial of a new breed of racecars modified to run on liquid hydrogen fuel. The car is produced by BMW and has a twelve-cylinder hydrogen concept engine. Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid, 2007 The car is a type HICEV and is manufactured by Japanese manufacturer Mazda. It is a bi-fuel version of the compact MPV Mazda5. It consist two-rotor Wankel engine which permits operation with hydrogen or gasoline. H2Origin, 2008 It is an urban delivery vehicle motorized by a fuel cell and electric drive train, manufactured by Peugeot Citroen. |

Fuel cell bus A fuel cell bus is a bus with hydrogen fuel cell powered source for electrically driven wheels, and sometimes also supplemented in a hybrid manner with batteries or a super capacitor. Few companies are carrying out research and also practical fuel cell buses trials. For example, Daimler AG, with thirty-six experimental units powered by fuel cells has successfully completed three-year trial, in eleven cities, in January 2007. Bicycles The PHB is a hydrogen powered bicycle, assisted by an electric motor that gets its electricity from a fuel cell which is manufactured by Pearl (SPHPST.Co), who launched it at the 9th China International Exhibition on Gas Technology, Equipment and Applications in 2007 Hydrogen airplane It is an airplane that uses hydrogen as a power source. Tupoley, the Russian manufacturer constructed a prototype version of Tu-154 airliner which was powered by hydrogen, named Tu-155. |

A hydrogen vehicle is an alternative fuel vehicle that makes use of hydrogen as its onboard fuel for motive power. The term ‘hydrogen vehicle’ can be associated to any vehicles that are powered by hydrogen. Chemical energy of hydrogen is being converted into mechanical energy by the power plants of such vehicles. This is generally done by either burning hydrogen in an internal combustion engine by reaction of hydrogen with oxygen in a fuel cell in order to dart electric motors. The most vital discrepancy between fossil-fueled cars and hydrogen-powered cars is definitely the amount of emissions they liberate from their utilization. Carbon monoxide which is very hazardous to humankind is released by fossil fuels in the form of gasoline. There are many other harmful substances too which are released by gasoline, that are eventually contributing to global warming. Hydrogen conversely is environmental-friendly. Despite the fact that hydrogen soars in energy, an engine that burns pure hydrogen produces approximately no pollution .It is easily renewed and as it generates great power, hydrogen fueled vehicles will be served with more power certainly! Fuel-cell vehicle A fuel cell vehicle is a type of hydrogen vehicle which uses a fuel-cell to create its onboard driving power. A fuel cell actually mingles hydrogen and oxygen to generate electricity, heat, and water. They are often measured up to batteries as both transfers the energy produced by a chemical reaction into workable electric power. |
