Hydrogen Is Coming to the Rescue

Cars That Think

The hybrid electric box truck they’ve come up with is carbon neutral. A hydrogen tank system located behind the 15,000-kilogram truck’s cab holds 175 kg of fuel at 70 megapascals (700 bars) of pressure. A consortium of U.S. federal agencies has pooled their funds and wide array of expertise to reinvent the emergency vehicle.
