As german BMW just given up hopes on Hydrogen, GM shows the superiority and innovative technology of American companies once again.

Yes your right Rhys, 23 operational with another 14 or so to come on-line later. But they have problems that relate to hydrogen technology. Some use hydogen fuel cells some use hydrogen to burn in ICE (internal combustion engine). Some use compressed hydrogen gas while others use liquidfied hydrogen. Not all stations offer these options.

In California there is only 158 “fleet” vehicles.

i am glad to see hydrogen has not been forgotten amongst all the diesel and hybrid talk. Hydrogeon, has to be the way of the future.

It’s already been worked out, as seen with the Hydrogen refueling stations in California. Different Honda trials are taking place now with regular people and families using 100% hydrogen cars in everyday normal life etc.

I think it isn’t the size of the engine that is the problem. It’s who will supply the hydogen and how to supply the hydrogen SAFELY! By safely I mean idiot proof it.

I know that the new hydrogen engine is 100kg lighter than the old one in the Equinox, but how heavy is it in relation to a petrol engine, for example the 1.8 in the Cruze?

I really hope GM and Honda keep up the work on Hydrogen Fuel Cell Tecnology. I just hope that when the Volt gets released they dont loose sight of it. 2015 is only 4 years away now…
