Suzuki’s Fuel Cell Racer
At next month’s Paris Motor Show is going to be one hot spot in the automotive industry, especially for Suzuki, who will introduce their SX4-FCV: Suzuki Fuel Cell Vehicle Racer.
The fuel cell racer stores hydrogen in a special developed tank and features a compact capacitor which captures the regenerated energy that comes from the brakes. This pumps out 80 kW with an electric motor output of 68 kW, it allows the model to travel with interruption for up to 250km and it makes a top speed of 150km/h. It’s a big step for Suzuki or any motor company, most electric vehicles rely on electricity to come from an external source. The Fuel Cell Vehicle creates its own through a chemical process using hydrogen and oxygen.
