Simple Science behind Hydrogen Fuelled Engines:
quote:
Take WATER, nature's MOST ABUNDANT ENERGY SOURCE, split it with electricity to form HYDROGEN and OXYGEN. Then recombine Hydrogen with Oxygen in a combustion process for energy. The only byproduct you get back is Water, No Carbon Dioxide, No Greenhouse Gases!
Check out these videos on Hydrogen as an environmentally friendly fuel source for automobiles from Discovery's Daily Planet...

I want one too!! So do you guys want an EN-V with the added motor sound effects for the safety of the pedestrians or for the bad boy image?   Petron hopefully the manufacturer creates a mini trunk...when they make it to America IP: Logged |
