Hydrogen Burning Scorpion Sports Car Revealed

The road (TGW) – The Scorpion, a sports car with an onboard hydrogen generator, was revealed today by Ronn Motors.

The car will cost $150,000, and the company hopes to have the first car on the road by October.

The Scorpion burns both hydrogen and gasoline in its engine. It is expected to get over 40 miles per gallon and will have reduced emissions. Regular tap water is split into hydrogen with electricity produced by an oversized alternator. The hydrogen is produced by the G3 unit of Hydrorunner, and a computer will manage the flow of hydrogen, keeping the fuel at around 30-40% hydrogen, with the rest being gasoline.

Development of a four door sedan with the same engine and hydrogen generator will begin the next six months, the company says.

Good job, Simmons. I think the price is reasonable for having your car with reduced emissions. We really should start taking care of our planet.
