  • Don't say that DSG is crappy if you haven't ever driven it!

  • Extracting hydrogen requires electricity. Fuel cells just turn the hydrogen back into electricity inside the car, to power an electric motor.. Only there is a huge loss so you end up with far less electricity than you started with. Plus the problem of a giant new infrastructure to make and store a leaky, cryogenic, explosive liquid. Why even bother? We already have an electric grid, why not just take that electricity and put it straight into the car. Making and using hydrogen is a waste.

  • @proaudiohd electricity must be stored somewhere. hydrogen has much greater energy density than traditional batteries. but you don't have to burn it to get energy back, just use fuel cells, they are efficient and safe

  • i can't wait for my DSG Polo GTI =) this just makes me more and more excited hahaha

  • @proaudiohd or a new combustable liquid so that conversion of current vehicles is a breeze.

  • bullshit video!!! :P

    but i still like DSG!!! ;)

  • bei 1.14 22605 Hamburg, Anckelmannsplatz 1 check out @google maps :)

  • cheesy music

  • @PistonsBroke DSG...CVT would not even come close.

  • @proaudiohd Plus you have large machines that require that extra horsepower that simple charging them will not deliver.Hydrogen Fuel Cells are just as horrible, they are very inefficient just as you said. I think It would be worth looking into hydrogen combustion however. We would only need to store it as a gas at that point. Simply, We are going to need something radically different if we are to create an energy infrastructure that is efficient and unreliable on fossil/foreign fuels.

  • @proaudiohd Only problem with that is that a lot of that power comes from fossil fuels anyway, so we're back to square one, just now we have to rebuild our entire energy infrastructure. No one wants to waste that much money, unfortunately. Second, Batteries are severely ineffective. Even modern ones don't last as long as they would need to drive a full electric car.

  • @waldemar31293 You havent even driven a bicycle in your live, so be quiet troll.
