Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars
Perhaps you’ve heard or read that some diesel engines are converted to use vegetable oil and there are also those who prefer to purchase hybrid cars. Have you ever considered a hydrogen fuel cell car? And why should you choose one?
The Advantages
Using hydrogen fuel in automobiles has some benefits. You see, a lot of people want to take advantage of free things. Well, hydrogen is more or less free. The source of hydrogen is water and the HHO cell found in the car’s engine separates it. You can get water from your faucet or in any other water source. You will surely cut down your fuel expenses.
Another good thing about fuel cells is that you can help save the environment. Fuel emissions from cars can harm the environment and if you’re using hydrogen fuel, you will decrease the emission of greenhouse gases. Global warming is a threat to the planet and through hydrogen, you can help save the entire planet.
The Disadvantages
Most of today’s cars are not designed to use hydrogen fuel cells. You can’t simply take your car to an auto mechanic and have it converted. An HHO cell is needed and it should be installed in your car. Once you obtain the HHO cell, you can get assistance or help from online sites. Some websites provide step by step instructions on how to install the cells. You will usually start in purchasing the needed materials, installing the HHO cell, and finally, starting your new hydrogen fuel cell car.
So, how does the hydrogen fuel cell car work? If you want to use hydrogen fuel cells, you must know how it works. Water is made up of oxygen and hydrogen. The molecules are separated by magnets found in the cells. Once the gases are separated, they are forced to the car’s combustion chamber to be burned and in turn produce energy to power your car. With a hydrogen fuel cell car, you will only use gas when starting the car and then start the water combustion process later on.
There will come a time when hydrogen fuel cell cars will roam the streets. Until then, you need to gather as much information so that you will know everything about fuel cell cars. Fuel sources nowadays are mostly harmful to the environment but if every individual who owns a car converts to hydrogen cells, the best interest of the can be promoted.
You hardly notice that you’re spending thousands of dollars on the gas of your car. But with hydrogen powered vehicles, you can save a lot of money and at the same time, you’re also preserving the environment. You can even use the extra money to buy other more important things.
Hydrogen fuel cell cars are now gaining popularity in the automotive industry. If you want to follow the trend, have your car converted as soon as the fuel cell cars become available. In the meantime, surf the net and acquire more knowledge about hydrogen fuel.

Hydrogen Fuel Cell for Cars of the Future
Man is free to take advantage of technology and this is one way to develop new ideas that can further benefit mankind. The car featured in the auto show was designed to disseminate intelligence. The sources are from various cross-media about security and traffic. The car can continuously dialog with the city, other vehicles, and the road without restraining the autonomy of motorists.
The outside appearance of the car is similar to that of today’s sports cars but the aerodynamic exterior makes it very much different. It has a unique concept called ‘liquid packaging’. What caught the attention of the audiences are the four fuel cells. The manufacturer called it Quaddrivium Fuel Cells.
The hydrogen cells were positioned near the car's wheels and each wheel is then powered with 20kw. The car also has a distinctive electric motor, additional battery coming from regenerative breaking and solar panels. The complicated electronic architecture uses modular power which depends in the driving condition. The dashboard is translucent and it displays various pieces of information.
The dashboard lights up when an important matter requires the attention of the driver. The headlights of the future car are equipped with radar and tele-cameras to ease information processing.
The design of the car is too much for the audience and most of them still think that it was definitely a car for the future. They can’t imagine a sophisticated car like the Sintesi to roam the streets of today. But if you try to analyze it closely, the entire car concept was based on available technologies and so it is not impossible to use the Sintesi today. If ever the various automakers can produce cars of the future that makes use of hydrogen cells, people can expect safer streets and better traffic flow in the coming years.
A lot of motoring publications covered the Sintesi, whether on the internet or in local publications. If Pininfarina can create a future vehicle, then so can other automakers like General Motors and BMW. In fact, news has it that these two car manufacturers are already designing a car that makes use of hydrogen cells. BMW is currently testing hydrogen powered vehicles in Germany and General Motors is going to follow.
Perhaps, future cars will soon be roaming the streets of rich countries. Well of course, the sophisticated cars will definitely be very expensive and only the rich people can afford it. However, as the years pass and the production of such cars become stable, even the ordinary individuals can afford it.
Now, you can just dream that you own a future car. But who knows, perhaps in the near future such cars will be sold in the market already. So start saving money now so that once the future cars are launched for the public, you can afford to buy one.
Many years ago, future cars like the Sintesi was simply a dream that is very hard to reach. But now, it is within arms reach.
