The future has arrived! On May 2, Eco-Runner Team Delft will unveil their new hydrogen car, so keep your eyes on the road for its sleek and modern design. 🚗
In an effort to fight the ongoing environmental crisis, the team of Delft students has invented the new hydrogen car, pushing the energy economy towards a more sustainable future, reports RTL Nieuws.
The new model is sturdier and is expected to push technical limits, making it the most efficient hydrogen car in the world. 🤯
What does it do?
The hydrogen car works similarly to an electric car, except it runs on hydrogen instead of a battery. Simple as that (well, not really).
The hydrogen combines with oxygen in the car’s fuel cell, which releases electrical energy that powers the electric motors.

All that’s left at the end of it is water as a waste product. Geweldig!
A new world record?
The Eco-Runner XII is en route to being a recording-breaking and award-winning environmentally friendly car.
For the last two years, previous models of the car have won world records for driving the furthest distance on hydrogen fuel.
This year, Eco-Runner Team Delfts’ goal is set to break the record again for driving the furthest distance without refuelling. Success!
What do you this of this environmentally friendly machine? Tell us in the comments below!
OK it’s a good idea but what’s new? I remember a hydrogen powered model A Ford in Utah at least 3 decades ago. Toyota sells, (in America anyway) a hydrogen powered car with a guarantee and the first two years worth of fuel. Yes, Toyota. Largest car maker in the world by numbers, I believe and not known for bad business judgment. Hydrogen power must be the worst nightmare of the oil barons. It can be made out of water and electricity, could power a home and be made and stored at home. We NLanders have this reputation for being thrifty and efficient and who better to show the rest of the world how to takes advantage of this neglected source of energy.
