Longest Range Hydrogen Car

Hydrogen automotive technology has long been a vision for a green future in cars. The modern basis of fuel cell technology was invented all the way back in 1932, and the discovery that hydrogen could generate electricity at all happened in the 1800s. In 1966, Chevrolet introduced the Electrovan, the world's first hydrogen fuel cell-powered motor vehicle.


It was originally designed to be a Corvair, but the engineers realized the hydrogen storage system would be too massive to fit into a sedan, and instead opted to use a Chevy Handivan to hold the tanks and fuel cell. Chevy never released the Electrovan as a production car, as the technology was simply impractical in terms of efficiency and in terms of hydrogen fuel infrastructure. Hydrogen cars lay dormant for nearly 30 years afterward, until Toyota began its now-massive hydrogen program in 1992.     READ MORE...
