hey thats June Lake at the end!!!! i love that place

It makes electricity and the only biproduct is water. Instead of a standard gas car that produces carbon monoxide (a harmful pollutant), carbon dioxide (a biproduct of breathing), water, and nitrogen oxides (smog). Catalytic converters attempt to reduce carbon monoxide (due to imperfect combustion) and nitrogen oxides (due to the high temperatures of combustion). This car doesn't even need one.

I'm glad car companies are finally trying something new. It's long over due.

[ASSASINATORpro]

So funny!

[rustayfurr]

...oh, doesnt run on water....so sad.

[Novous]

For all general cases: You can't run a car on water. Water is in a very low energy state. Reactions naturally go from high energy states to low energy states (see Law of Entropy).

[rustayfurr]

...wait, the car runs on hydrogen gas or water?

[Novous]

Neither. It combines pure hydrogen and pure oxygen to produce electricity and the only bi-product is water.

[harwoodhomies]

awesome commercial. i love it!

[cashdudehomie]

And the one guy looks just like Morpheus and others look like Seraph and Bain.

People are worried about storing hydrogen in their cars because it turns their car into a bomb... hmmm... let me see... why does this sound stupid... OH I remember... OUR CARS ARE ALREADY BOMBS THEY STORE AN EXPLOSIVE KNOWN AS GASOLINE!!! if the amount of hydrogen in the hindenburg was replaced by gasoline and a spark went off you would have an even bigger boom.

[Novous]

Not exactly. Hydrogen is extremely flammable because its in a gaseous state. Gasoline is stable enough in its liquid state to survive a cigarette being thrown in to a pool of it.

That's not to say it should be feared though. It just means we need proper safety precautions.

I was a student of Humboldt State University (California), which its Schatz Energy Research Center had PEM fuel cell golf carts up and running in Palm Spring (as well as H2 fueling station). If H2 is well insulated, explosion is less likely than gas. Yes, H2 is flammable, but the leak (into the air) is going to be in minor quantity. H2 also escapes instantly unlike gas remains under dangerous condition much longer than H2. H2 also react with other elements in the nature (ie O2) in a short time.

[Dcastkid]

the future. except ,of course, the fact that you re storing hydrogen in your car... the Hindenburg comes to mind? still... a very innovative concept and alternate fuel source solution.

[ChaosEspressoMachine]

I love how they are all hard core macho lobbing water balloons!

The Hydrogen Infrastructure will cost a Trillion dollars. The Electric Car infrastructure is in place, and an extension cord costs $10 at your local hardware store, think about it.

[psychomidnight]

this is like my favourite commercial of all time

[cashdudehomie]

Mine too. I love the Matrix movies, and it's pretty obvious to me that this commercial is spoofing them. It's hilarious. The one guy even looks like an Agent.

[DavieD008]

amazing commercial
