I can only get 230 a tank!
Where do I sign up for the US test?

 

They got that much on the tank because they actually had 2 tanks. When the hydrogen tank ran out, they switched over to the conventional gas tank. They cheated.

 

What abunch of *** clowns why would they cheat. like that.

 

um... what r the power figures? like 90Hp?

 

adjusted is actually 12 whp.










j/k! haha!

 

Yeah, its not efficient enough to make power on hydrogen, they need to make power then they will get america's attention if they can crank out 160-250HP on a small hydrogen engine.

 

Yeah, who cares about 390 miles when you get only 1/2 a HP...LOL

It's more like 130HP per what I have read but that's about 130HP too little for my taste.

 

yeah, 130 hp on hydrogen.. and only 40 miles or so on a 19 gallon hydrogen tank.

I was at the Tokyo motor show recently. Turned out to be mostly boring as it was the smaller motor show catering commercial and barrier free vehicles where barrier free was geared more towards drivers with disabilities rather than no speed limits... Anyway, they did have a video going at the Mazda stand of the Hydrogen RX8 and along with it, the following display which I've attached (hopefully) in the photos below. Enjoy!
