hydrogen as a fuel is gonna be the future...... the west (it would appear) is sick of being reliant on a dubious supply chain for its oil/fuel. wont be the same without a loud pipe.

problem is they already stated that making the hydrogen uses more fuel than the fuel itself lmao oh and also its gonna cost £6000 which aint exactly that excitiing and it only goes 100 miles on a full tank and fifty miles an hour full blast. cant see many people rushing out just yet can you ?

didnt have a look at it but no doubt its only a prototype.... when and if the hydrogen fuel cell becomes more practicle and cheaper to produce the big manufacturers will jump on board and performance will increase as will miles per whatever. it makes sence as a fuel source as its only emissions will be water. however i dont think that big business is ready to end its love affair with fossil fuels anytime soon. but one day off in the future all vehicles will be using hydrogen as a fuel. oh and you can bet yer last quid that any government will tax the fuel to the hilt as well. off to make carbon footprints while i can F.T.W. ..... bear not a lover of treehuggin hippy types
