Hydrogen Car HORSEPOWER & TORQUE
Find horsepower and torque specs for automobiles with hydrogen-fueled engines! A hydrogen car differs a good deal from other, more conventional propulsion systems, such a gasoline fed internal combustion engines or fully electric engines. Hydrogen cars convert hydrogen’s chemical energy to a mechanical energy by burning it in an internal combustion engine, or by reacting it with oxygen within a fuel cell to power electric motors. Today, there are only a few hydrogen cars available for sale, such as the Toyota Mirai, Hyundai Nexo, and Honda Clarity. While several other automakers are evidently developing their own hydrogen vehicles, widespread adoption of hydrogen as a fuel source is needed to build out the infrastructure and reach a critical mass for it to be a viable automotive propulsion system in the future. Another challenge today is that hydrogen fuel cells are relatively expensive to produce. So if hydrogen powered cars are more widely adopted, then in theory with the greater economies of scale, the cars can
