So if it a new version, why didn’t they put it in the updated Highlander/Kluger body shell?

****wad, if you did ANY research or understood what people were stating, you’d understand … unfortunately, you’re illiterate. Kill yourself, loser.

Industry insiders have commented that hydrogen won’t work … too energy intensive … move on.

xyunya- Many of those E85 studies about the cost and infrastructure have been funded by oil companies. Not hinting at some conspiracy, but it’s simple fact. And you can cool your pessimistic views down, and accept the fact that people are at work at a system that will give nearly as much energy as it gets to a power source, and then recycle much of that energy. For now however, most alternate fuels take a bit more energy to create than they make.

Oh Yawn….the Hydrogen hype is alive at LLN’s. No infrastructure, no insurance companies will touch them, and no dealership wants them inside the building…all hype and no future until the liability issues are taken care of.

Great! Toyota, Honda, GM, BMW, and Ford are all ready with decent hydrogen fuel cell technologies. Now all we need is a freaking infrastructure!

Oh yeah and a decent way to produce hydrogen fuel.

Did they fix the issue of finding places to refill this thing anywhere if needed.

What happens when it -25 F? Are we sure that global warming will take of those cold nights? And where pure hydrogen will come from? We are not talking CNG. I don’t think it is better researched and thought out idea then E85. Now we have starving cows and later we will need nukes to work just to distill water and then break it down into hydrogen and oxygen. After that hydrogen will be compressed into a cylinder and after cycle in fuel cell will generate water and return less energy in form of electricity then was originally used to distill water and create hydrogen.

whoopy do. tell me when it does 0-60 and the car looks more like a viper or sumthing as sexy, rather then a box or a 80’s pc mouse.
