BMW Hydrogen 7 Launched!

June 15th, 2007        

BMW has launched the Hydrogen 7 at a British golf tournament, London. Hydrogen 7 is a car that runs on hydrogen though the petrol alternative. It has a dual-fuel engine that allows you to switch between hydrogen mode and fuel mode with the press of a steering wheel-mounted button.

The BMW hydrogen 7 is powered by a 195kW (260bhp) 12-cylinder engine, rocketing 0 to 100 km/h in 9.5 seconds and achieves 230km/h top speed. It has a 74-litre petrol tank and another tank to holds 8kg of liquid hydrogen stored at -253C.

The best of all, the engine power and torque in Hydrogen 7 stays the same in both hydrogen and fuel mode which means that you can switch between that two without any effect on the performance.
