If this energy could be harvested, it would be equivalent to 21 billion gallons of gasoline (ThePigSite, 2004).

The front-wheel drive B-Class F-CELL offers an operating range of around 240 miles (386 km) (Euro driving cycle, 190 miles (306 km) estimated EPA)—more than twice the range of the 2004 A-Class F-CELL—and short refueling times. The hydrogen used to run the fuel cell is stored in three tanks at a pressure of 10,150 psi (700 bar).

On the highway, it runs just like any other Prius, with the gasoline engine doing most of the work -- and the extra batteries kicking in to improve performance at ALL speeds. Add batteries and grid-charging, and you get PRIUS+, a "plug-in" hybrid (PHEV). That means no gas when you do your errands on local streets at 35mph.
