seconds and delivers a passing time of 3 seconds from 25–40 mph. Two tanks with a three-layer structure made of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic and other materials are used to store hydrogen at 70 MPa (approximately 700 bars or 10,000 psi). Middle layer: carbon fiber reinforced plastic (structural element).
