The main difference between “normal” cars and those powered with hydrogen is that there is no internal combustion engine in the car at all. Instead, there’s a fuel cell, which generates electricity using hydrogen. However, unlike a battery-electric car, hydrogen-powered vehicles don't requir...
With both hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles and pure electric vehicles (EVs) being the key development areas in China, how do hydrogen-powered vehicles stack up against EVs in terms of sustainability, efficiency, and useability? Hydrogen cars vs electric vehicles: Which one is more sustainable? Fuel c...
One use for hydrogen is to fuel a type of electric car, often termed fuel cell electric vehicles—but let's just call them hydrogen cars. While there are no tail pipe emissions, transitioning to hydrogen cars may not be the economic panacea that might be hoped for in comparison to plug-i...
Hydrogen has long been touted as the future for passenger cars. Thehydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), which simply runs on pressurised hydrogen from a fuelling station, produces zero carbon emissions from its exhaust. It can be filled as quickly as a fossil-fuel equivalent and offers ...
We look at the chemistry of water-emitting fuel-cell electric cars (FCEVs) and how the tech might save motoring as we know it
If we begin preparing for that now, and build Supercharger fueling stations for all brands of electric cars, all of our vehicles can realistically be powered by the efficient, environmentally friendly, and renewable energy, electricity. 展开 ...
Power Source: Electricity vs. Hydrogen Let us start with the basics; as we all probably know by now electric vehicles are powered by electricity stored in rechargeable batteries with these batteries being charged by plugging the vehicle into an electrical outlet or using a dedicated charging station...
Hydrogen cars are an emerging avenue in the car market and it has the potential to challenge the electric vehicle market.
Volkswagen will stay away from making hydrogen-powered passenger cars in the next decade and will focus its efforts on further developing EV technology. The statements come from the brand’s CEO, Thomas Schafer, who spoke to the Spanish division of AutoBild at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show...
This is despite a disappointing start for Honda’s foray into hydrogen-powered cars, the Clarity Fuel Cell, which only saw about 1,900 units sold worldwide, leading to its discontinuation in 2021. “In those days, the infrastructure was not good enough, and it was an experimental model and...
