Hydrogen-Using Hybrid Minivan in 2008
Thursday, October 20, 2005
"Japan's Mazda Motor Corp. plans to start offering a hybrid minivan powered by a hydrogen-gasoline dual-fuel rotary engine and an electric motor around 2008, President Hisakazu Imaki told a news conference Wednesday at the Tokyo Motor Show. The Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid's engine switches to gasoline once the hydrogen runs out, and the electric motor helps improve fuel economy and power output. The current prototype can be driven just 200km on a tankful of hydrogen, but the automaker intends to improve the performance." Source: fuelcellsworks.com
