Hydrogen Cars





19 November

Audi unveiled the A7 h-tron quattro with hydrogen fuel cell that will go over 300 miles between refuellings. At the moment it is only a demonstration car. But Audi says it can deliver production version whenever infrastructure is ready for hydrogen supply.

Now hydrogen cars available for commercial use.

Hyundai has been leasing the hydrogen-powered Tucson sport utility, which it describes as the world’s first mass-produced fuel cell car, since June, for a $2,999 down payment, and $499 a month. (That includes the hydrogen.)

Toyota is introducing a sedan called Mirai, which means “future” in Japanese.

The Mirai will go on sale in California this year for $57,500 — cheaper than the Tesla Model S.
