Ford's Hydrogen-Powered, Plug-In Hybrid

We took a spin yesterday in the Ford HySeries Edge, the world's first working plug-in, fuel-cell, hydrogen-powered car, which the Detroit automaker plans to show off as a concept at the New York auto show tomorrow. Though wafting zero-emissions exhaust in our face taught us plenty as to the realities of a hydrogen-powered automotive experience, what really made our test special was actually being able to drive a car running on advanced hydrogen fuel-cell technology that can power itself with a 336-volt battery pack.

Total Joke. Oil company & auto manufacture scam. We have cars than run on stricly water all employ some form of water manipulation to fully power the vehicle. Big Oil and Auto want the infrastructure to replace oil and keep you coming to them to get hydrogen. Thier biggest fear is you going to your kitchen sink and filling your car up with water. You would be cutting them out.This technology can also make old vehicles viable for useage and Big auto hates that idea, they all bunch F'in liars

breaths it in: shit wrong car

We ARE going to run out of oil. Instead of posting nonsense like "gasoline is better", why don't you go look up when our best estimates say we're going to run out of resources. Our consumption of resources is increasing exponentially and has always been. We're reaching the "vertical" part of the curve. Even if we do move away from oil, it will shift the energy burden onto yet another non-renewable resource to generate the electricity to charge/electrolyze.

Don't these things explode in an accident ?

hydrogen cars are the future, now we have to get rid of betty soretoe before he gets rid of us, replace the import taxation to discourage slavery and allow americans to make whatever americans consume and export to the world.The idea of a super slave store may be alluring to their major stockholders, but its the death march of america " waltonses, gatses, buffetses, fed, lawyers, judges, super delegates, lobbies et al ) may feed well on the destruction of america, but, I don't see their future

no i am out i agreed plug in hybrid but not hydrogen bomb cylinder no no no.

I wouldn't be drinking the water or breathing the water vapor from the tail pipe just yet until we take it and put it in a fish tank to see how golf fishes react and give birth in that water. Further experimentation should be conducted before we send that water into our atmosphere. The same with involving Nuclear with water.

@energyismass that's still in testing and cost a ton dude.

[CarbonXL]

they keep showing concepts, they need to stop the fantasy and the dreaming, and actually make these vehicles now!! they just want you to keep buying the crap cars they make now.

@johnson1095 lol...i was thinking of seeing that clip on the news...they cut out right after he grabs his throat, falling down....: )

[Unknownboi88]

umm when Honda was developing there new clarity they also made designed for users to get a small electronics plant at home to fill it with hydrogen... not a new idea

[johnson1095]

that'd be hilarious if when he breathed in the exaust he fell over dead lol
