What do you mean “EVs did help cut emissions”? They’ve only just begun. Honda did not lead and does not lead the move to Hydrogen engines. They’ve been around for quite a while and Toyota is leading the push for Hydrogen engines.

I'm a long time proponent of phev. I've been driving a 2018 honda clarity phev and loving the money saved! Fifty cents per gallon of electric equivalent to gasoline! Every day use and average 4-5 gallon of gas per month! That being said 50-100 miles of battery would make a great improvement. Then if they wanted to eliminate emissions, pull out the heavy engine and transmission and replace it with a hydrogen fuel cell generator that can use a couple of the replaceable hydrogen tanks. These can be refilled at a lot of existing welding supply stores. No big infrastructure buildup.

The problem is developing a cost effective and practical hydrogen fuel station. Toyota Mirai and Honda Clarity are already examples of a hydrogen car. It doesn’t replace the convenience of charging at home with BEV. This video depicts an engine that looks like high maintenance versus an electric motor that doesn’t require maintenance. The reason is that an engine has too many moving parts and will wear over time.

EVs we’re never intended to be a solution, but a bridge, along w/ fossil fuels, to an hydrogen economy!

One look at a cobalt mine in Africa busts the myth of evs being green, ethical or good for the environment.

This video seems to be confused if it is talking about hydrogen combustion engines or hydrogen fuel cell engines. The latter one basically acts as BEV with the difference that the fuel cell instead of a battery produces the electricity.

Really hope this works. ! As a teenager I heard that HYDROGEN was going to power our future, with no problems - it was just 10 years away. I am now close to 70 years old and have heard every decade of my life that HYDROGEN is coming to our help. It might be just 10 years away.!?!

Inspired by Kodak's phenomenal success in traditional film, Honda has officially decided to change its name to Kodak Honda.

Starting to like honda even more these days. Like an old saying is going... a friend in need is a friend indeed. Now, i wouldnt go as far they are friends. but they do reconize the problems with EV's and its not the way to go.

Cool... No tell us about how is H2 is obtained in vast quantities and also tell us about NOx emissions as well while you're at it.

Never doubt the land that gives the world Gundam

Japan is an island nation that needs to import fuels to power their industry. Japan is only subsidizing research so that they can be independent of fuel imports.

No Honda is dead in its tracks.

My next car will be hybrid. I'm not giving up gasoline until the scientists and manufacturers know which way is the future. I really think that EV's are probably a scam, unless battery technology figures out a cheap way to make batteries without lithium or cobalt.

For the next 15-20 years, i think the Hybrid cars make sense for most people

I want them to start putting a nutrition sticker on evs. That shows all the fuel and energy used to make that car. It will show the car won’t last long enough to actually create zero emissions as you have to deduct the co2 caused in its creation first before you actually get to claim some kind of gain.

Hmmn, guess over time people forget their history, anyone remember the Hindenburg?

20 years at it and still none on the road. Still waiting…

What happened to the Proton Exchange Membrane?

Hydrogen is not an energy source but simply a storage method. It does exist on earth but can be found in abundance in distant galaxys. This makes it an unlikely fuel source.

Yes, flying cars are the future and you will not need a pilot license to fly them will be computer guided through a central command center just punch in your destination and fall asleep till you get there!! No more worrying about Drunk or High drivers 🙂

The commentator just reads a concept and looks like he has no technical knowledge. Not worth looking at!

.? What do hydrogen engines use for lubricants? Oil?

There seems to be some confusion in this video between hydrogen combustion engines and fuel cells. The narrator and the images seem to contradict each other, talking about h2 combustion while showing fuel cell engines, and there is very little explanation of the difference.

Several hydrogen fuelled trucks on test in Switzerland

producing hydrogen need lots of energy too right ?🤔

The problem is not combustion or electric or hydrogen. It’s the cars themselves.

Honda introduces its new model, the Hindenburg.

Before I moved out to Michigan in 1999, I was living in Nebraska and received printed information from a college/university in Ohio or Indiana, that they had success with a hydrogen powered Farmall tractor. They had some issues to work out, which was the inherit corrosive issues of water in internal combustion engines long term, as fuel like gasoline or especially diesel fuel does have some lubrication and rust prevention attributes. That was over 20 years ago! So I imagine, technology, and engineers have since worked on the idea. Hydrogen is the most plentiful element on earth and in the universe. Someday we will have Hydrogen Fusion powered electric power plants that supply energy with NO radioactive residue, and be pretty much neutral to environments.

3:10 only water EHHHH? what about nitrates? will they bee the new catalytic converter?

Honda is getting crazy by EV

JCB in the U.K. are already producing and selling Hydrogen powered heavy equipment successfully. Honda Will lead the field by this very smart move.

The complete energy cycle to produce, distribute, store and burn hydrogen is inferior compared with EVs especially with newest battery technology.

Oh dear oh dear. Hydrogen from electricity is so inefficient that the cost will be unaffordable compared to batteries. And do we not get the Nitrous Oxide problems the same as with petrol. Now there may be special cases, for example in mining or shipping or for travel in cold places where this might be a good option but for most car journeys they have gone to a more complicated and costly solution. Looking forward to 30 year old battery cars where you can cheaply replace the battery to keep the car going... motor and electronics still in good shape, just need a new wind screen and headlight glass to keep the driving easy!

I don't care if a car runs on dog doo. I want a subcompact car in a cool red color for under $20,000... When that is offered, I'll buy it.

make it 70,000 and fully bulletproof

And how will this miraculous engine be lubricated? With oil maybe? Nuts!

This must be a Honda sponsored channel, nothing but misinformation here.

Hey Honda, with solar on the roof and home storage batteries in the garage, I can do 90% of my EV charging using power generated from my own personal power company. Can your hydrogen motor compete with that?

Many responding clearly didn't watch the video that explains why hydrogen cars won't be made.

yes, good for a very small country like Japan, but no good for the US. Europe, Russia and China. not the matter of engine, is a matter of investment for filling station.

I believe an alternative vehicle energy source is needed until the electric/battery vehicle is perfected. What should the energy source be, I don’t know. I like many people live in very cold climate and far from large cities/centres to access medical specialists as an example. We get -20 to -40C during our winter months( 4 months of the year) and our spring and fall are still quite cold during nights. Most people don’t have a garage to store their vehicles in during the night nor is their covered/sheltered parking at any work. We don’t have large malls with underground parking, we don’t have any public transportation other than taxis. I’m not talking about a tiny community either, there is approximately a population of 100k within a radius of 150 miles. We need to travel a minimum of 250 miles to see a minority of medical specialists, and another 200 miles (total 400-450 miles) to reach most medical specialists and major hospitals. The present EV vehicles cannot and will not meet our needs. It would take days to travel for medical services and other services, work related meetings and so on one way, it would not start to get to work in -20 to -30 C degrees at home, never mind starting after a 8 to 12 hour shifts parked outdoors,….. I fully understand the need to change the vehicles’ energy sources but we are just not there yet to completely change in 2030 or 2035. How many people live in very similar cold temperatures globally? We are talking about millions of people who don’t have any alternatives such as public transportation and reside in remote areas. Moving is not an alternative either, we live in areas that provide minerals for your batteries, gold, silver, nickel, ……. and yes, lumber to build your houses, furniture, paper,….. And let’s not forget people, gas, fuel, and propane has a percentage of tax being collected for road maintenance and construction which the present electric EV doesn’t collect so the cost of electricity will need to be increased in the near future to cover maintenance and the construction of new roads. Once these costs are added to the electric bills, will it be cheaper? Will all electric usage be taxed including the lighting and heating of your homes as your EV will be charged at home on the same meter? All looks so beautiful but people are not fully informed on the benefits of going on the grid. What about the construction of wind turbines as an example, the pollution of construction of them, the unusable material once it’s life cycle is over (about 20 years), still using natural gas to make electricity, the environmental impact all the new technology will have on water, sea, land, our health, ……. Is nuclear the best way to go for environmental protection, long term cost, ….. think about all the solar panels being discarded at the landfills after 20 years of use, that isn’t much better than our present situation. Countries such as mine in Canada have all these materials that are recyclable but we have very little to no companies/industries that actually recycle the materials. Everyone willingly separate these materials to be picked up the curb then it ends up being sipped to another (poor) country and even worst being dumped in landfills unknowingly to the people. In our area that I know, probably most places in Canada, glass is not recycled, yet when I was younger, the glass milk bottles, pop and beer bottles and so on was washed and reused, and what was damaged was being recycled. Not anymore, why not? And to boot, people are being taxed to help save the environment, help to deal with the extra costs of recycling the material. Governments, industries, and the wealthy are misleading the people when it comes to recycle and saving the environment. It all boils down to money, who saves money, who can make more money by cutting corners and get away with it, lining the pockets of the rich, convincing people they are doing wonders with their tax dollars talking care of pollution, ….. and getting re-elected so they line their pockets even more. What is the solution? I don’t know but it sure isn’t what I have just discussed!!

only if it runs on water NOT making water

Hydrogen is the way foward

All fuel is helpful except fossil.

All about not killing rainforest

No chance. I mean absolutely no chance. Efficiency of combustion engines is terrible. Efficiency of making H2 also. Combined is double worse. Who wants to pay 20 times more per mile just to drive an H2 car?

Uh, have you heard of the Honda Clarity? Ask Jamie Lee Curtis about it. 😜

I’m for hydration

F Electric , i'm good with Hydrogen until zero point comes online.

There is no hydrogen fueling infrastructure. On an energy in energy out basis hydrogen is 3 times as expensive. Btw I charge at home in my sleep.

Ford hasn’t put a fight 😂😂😂 and can you explain how to charge hydrogen smh 🤦‍♂️

I'm spying my next 2-3 car purchases as I have a 6 person household with a fifth driver starting this summer. Not a single car for consideration will be an EV. They are a total disaster, not only from a practicality standpoint but ecologically they make traditional combustion engines look clean.

Because Hydrogen cars lhave sold so well so far and there's a filling station on every corner right? This channel really makes me laugh

😂 you could run this new hydrogen engine on Budweiser light and save a bundle, yeah???

The hydrogen car is a red hearing, and always was. It's nothing more than an excuse for out-of-date car companies to do nothing. Just something they can point at and say "See? We're working on clean energy", and then continue to make and sell the same old dirty crap.

ENGINE ???? For EV, NO engine with 1000 k miles life. Battery will be better, more power, more efficiency with cleaner ways of making battery. Also, with "Economy of Scale" in productions, it will be cheaper and cheaper. 🙂🙂🙂

Hydrogen is the best solution...new method to produce hydrogen has found and cheap compare with electrolysis..good job honda and toyota.

The EV industry was already "destroyed" a few times by the hydrogen engines/fuel cells :)) Why beat a dead horse over and over again ?

Best of luck Honda 😂😂😂

It takes energy to produce hydrogen. Where does that energy come from? Asinine concept.

No surprise that Honda, alway an innovator, is heading in the right direction, along with GM, which helps give the effort stability and credibility. I would definitely buy one of their hydrogen-fueled cars over an EV, whose batteries not only add so much weight to the car itself, but have their own extremely high environmental costs to produce and dispose of. Please, roll this car out soon!

Electric vehicles bad, but hydrogen ❤

I havent watched the video yet, but I'll go ahead and say no matter what Honda has up it's sleeve with this new engine...it wont stop the onslaught of EV's, because thats what politicians want, and thats where the money is. This isnt truly about staving off global warming and saving the planet, it's about consolidation of power. EV's are NOT the future, just the near future to wean the great unwashed masses from driving their personal transportation devices that uses relatively cheap and plentiful fuel pumped from deep inside the earth ("fossil fuels" is a term created by big oil to give it an air of scarcity..it's just a fortunate (for oil companies) happenstance that environmentalists also like using that term even though there are no fossils in crude oil) in favor of something far easier to control yet much harder for individuals to store...electricity. The ultimate goal is to end personal transport altogether...or at least for the common world citizen, the elites will still have that option. Anyone who thinks I'm talking conspiracy theory nonsense hasnt been paying attention for the last 20 years, but we will all see very soon. The environmentalists who also hate EV's are being marginalized and in some cases muzzled right now...but within 10 years you will begin to see them being unleashed to every state owned msm outlet in an effort to sway public opinion and get people to "do the right thing to save the planet from this terrible eminent crisis!"...and western governments will be all too happy to step in and save the day with massive public transport projects...of course paid for by the same people who will have no choice but to either use them or never leave their tiny highrise apartment in whatever megacity their country assigns them to live in.

Why do people think the petrol engine or any engine fired by what ever is a runner ? You still have spark plugs oil and filter changes an EV has none of these parts I will never buy this type of power unit my next car will be and EV

Both Toyota and Honda are pumping a lot of R&D money into hydrogen powered vehicles. They understand the global infrastructure problems with EVs. All of the other car manufacturers went into panic mode when Tesla started taking market share in North America and Europe. Only China has been able to create the infrastructure to support EV charging. The rest of the world has no chance of getting any kind of infrastructure in place by 2030. Pumps in fuel stations can be converted into hydrogen, so it will be business as usual for hydrogen powered vehicles, with no queuing up for hours on end at a motorway service station waiting for a charger to become available. And no problem trying to charge a vehicle if you don’t have off street parking. EVs outside of China will become obsolete and the main manufacturers will have to spend more billions trying to catch up with Toyota and Honda in hydrogen powered cars.

Honda joining with Gruesome Murderer? Holy Cow, no wonder GM Killed the EV1 Electric Car - no wonder Mary Barra said Gruesome Murderer will be the leader in EVs... wait, who said what?

Apparently producing Hydrogen takes a lot of energy but doesn't producing electric cars take a lot of energy and cause huge CO2 problems at there source. The fact is Hydrogen is not backed like Electric.

Think of the money that can be made fixing hydrogen engines ???🤔🤫its ENORMOUS! 🤪😜😝

bs

Not in my garage I love my Tesla m3 dual motor ❤️

Panic is in the air. Hydrogen is not part of the US infrastructure. Not going to refill at home. Tesla is already improving their battery chemistry to reduce to remove cobalt. Also they designed a motor that does not need rare earth metals. And finally. These are concepts. Make a production car, see how it sells and user reviews.

The entire Japanese car industry is doomed. They're way too late to the EV market, their EV products aren't good, and they're heavily in debt. In a few years, almost all new cars will be EV. Every car maker is putting all their R&D into EV production. So, we have companies like Honda and all the oil companies bad mouthing EVs with false claims of being bad for the environment and needing new batteries. Tesla's with over 100k miles lose about 10% of battery capacity. New batteries won't need as many rare earths. 90% of charging will be done at home. Just plug it in at night, when prices are lower and the next morning, it's full. Not at charging stations. They don't need oil changes, or have transmissions that can go bad. You rarely have to use the brakes, so the brakes will last a lot longer. Oh, and they outperform gas cars by a lot.

The most efficient way to use hydrogen for automobiles is not hydrogen combustion but hydrogen fuel cell. Everytime you burn something, there always be energy loss from the heat.

Honda and Toyota are desperately trying to keep the ICE vehicles because the maintenance cost to consumers are much higher than that of EV's, and therefore more profitable for them.

My Tesla stocks are the reason I was able to step up to a real EV a 2022 Tesla Model 3 dual motor AWD one of the safest automobiles in the world and I’m never going back and a easy comparison to efficacy is cost to operate I operate at 125 miles per gallon electric that is on a $ basis 😎gota love it + it drives a 1000 times better & no maintenance

I’d take Hydrogen Fuel Cells over EVs any day of the week. Hydrogen Fuel Cells are 2X more practical than EVs, fuel cells have better & more range

Hydrogen is the future

This channel is obviously sponsored by ICE motor producers who have invested billions over 100 years on research in technology that started in the industrial revolution. They dont want to give that up to any chinese corner garage that can produce an EV. I only have this to say: GIVE IT UP, before its too late for you. Except probably for heavy machinery (but even Norway uses electric bulldozers), electric is cheaper to produce, store, transport over copper wires and to maintain.

Lol

Electric car batteries are tragically flammable. You can't put out the fire.

Japanese technology

360 miles great, oh but EVs do that. Bye Japanese auto.

You couldn’t be more misleading 😅

What bunch of FUD.😂 buy EV today that I can fuel in my garage at home or wait for hydrogen infrastructure to be built out so the oil companies can still have a monopoly. Honda and Toyota , Japan face it you bet on the wrong wrong horse and lost! Pivot or go bankrupt.

Bah hah haha! Yet another legacy car maker about to go bust!

You cant just fo a hydrogen engine.. its stupid.. we have seen it fail already with toyota.. You need to take a page out of Tesla's playbook and backwards intergrade.. you need to then invest in hydration manufacturing plants and hydrogen fuel stations all over like tesla did.. why would people buy a car where there is no fuel station for them to pump fuel...

😂😂😂😂😂

724th...Thanks

I have a better solution to this Climate Change debacle. DON’T BUY CARS!

Honda will go bankrupt!, mark my words.

hydrogen combustion engine will never get off the ground.... ludicrous video.

No more EVs! Scrap the lot. H2 ICE is only sensible viable way to go.

Brilliant move by Honda

Of course it will. Not like they are desperate or anything!!

Time to call the toyota 10 years experiment a complete failure. it's more difficult to safely contain and distribute hydrogen then electricit's. so why bother. the total efficiency to run on hydrogen is no greater than 50% max. BEV is closer to 80%. Which technology has more potential for greater efficiency?

Where theres a will theres a way, the will of getting away from petroleum fuel is growing, people still love their combustion engine though. So naturally soon we WILL have hydrogen combustion engines. I cant wait, it will not take long before their is home hydrogen proding systems to fill up your car. It may be costly to get going but not nearly as costly as ev has been. This is just the first step of many in the right direction. Sound plus pedal and acceleration equals fun ... people like fun. Combustion engines are not going anywhere, so lets fi d a happy medium. Hydrogen does lower nox compared to petrol. And zero carbon emissions, and no mining required. Win win situation. We are only human we are not perfect, haters will hate thats what they do. I personally love it.

Honda is a dead man walking!

The problem here is talk is cheap. Prove this by example. We all know about those Ford Focus transmissions! Total junk!
