Well someone finally did it, built a zero emmissions fuel cell car, and not so shcockingly it is Honda. And to top it off they are designing a home recharge kit that will allow you to simply refill your car at home. I truly hope this is the start of something big, and our movement away from Oil companies. Link to test drive review DD
I would love to see a practical fueal cell car, it would please me no more than seeing the oil companies take a huge hit.
we need hydrogen? powered cars. i'm all for eco friendly cars, but i would still want a sports car version. i guess by the time their released, i would want a minivan version.
So how do we produce hydrogen economically? I don't know the process real well except it requires using electricity which has to come from somewhere.
So are you saying that it really is not zero emissions or that we'll still be using oil for something?
Exactly. Its not like we have a well of hydrogen laying somewhere. Hydrogen is just another type of energy storage because you have to put just as much energy to produce it as you get out of it. The only long term answer is solar and nuclear. You produce the energy or collect the energy from one of these sources, store it via a battery or hydrogen, use it in your car.
Thats a good news...well have anyone used it..do u know the specifications of that car...well we can believe Honda..if u get the details please let me know...
Saw the link...hey the car is awesome...no one says that its been recharged...actually we all are waiting for that kind of car ,....
A question Ive always had about electric cars that you plug in at home..... Does it cost more in electricity to run these cars then it would if you used Petrol?
That depends on both market gas and electricity prices. The idea is that some day alternative energy sources like solar and wind will be price competitive with petroleum or even cheaper. That combined with the obvious green benefits would make plug in's a no brainer.
from what i have read, it will first come out as a lease-only car in cali. oh, and it doesnt look all that bad
I think hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. As long as we get away from oil it is good.
It was the paint on the fabric that ignited.... But what exactly is your point, doesn't Gasoline explode too? DD
