The Truth About Cars

FEBRUARY 26, 2024

The Japanese auto giant has developed hydrogen powertrains and been a staunch supporter of hybrid technologies, and now it is testing a new engine that can remove carbon from the air. The carbon capture engine first appeared in a GR Corolla race car last year as part of a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain.
