With global leading car OEMs such as Toyota, Honda, Hyundai all recently announcing their intentions to make their FCEVs available to the consumer, there is no doubt that the OEMs have done their homework. Despite the recent progress, a number of myths around the use, power efficiency and cost of fuel cells still exist.

On the other hand, hybrids that don’t plug in draw their battery power from the engine and when the battery is drained, the car simply switches to gas power. If you use solar power to generate electricity for your EV charging station, you can reduce the carbon footprint of running an EV down to virtually zero. How Do Hybrid Cars Work?

They are Hyundai, Honda and you guessed it - Toyota. Solar energy costs have fallen by 85% over the last 10 years and by 2030, we will all be energy surplus. Their engineers have been quietly working on a number of EV projects. But there are three companies who are still investing and promoting and playing the Hydrogen car game.

Why pay $40K for a GM volt… which will look nothing more than a Malibu anyway and only get 40 miles before the gasoline engine kicks in. The fuel engine on the Volt is used to run the generator to recharge the battery when a trip exceeds 40 miles, and it’s rage on a full tank is around 400 miles. — Goodbye 2.

Think Global managers want to develop the car plant and launch an engineering center, perhaps alongside. There are choices for 110 volt versus 220 volt, slow versus quick charges, and solar options. I wonder how the hapless car buyers without the PhD’s in engineering are going to deal with all of this?

GM will leapfrog Toyota and Honda by providing an electric car to the masses by the end of next year. The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. The car is expected to cost around $40,000.
