Cars for the 21st Century |
Dr Nico will be talking about the various powertrain we see in current cars, from pure petrol and diesels, to various forms of hybrid, to battery electric and hydrogen cars. I will explain why and how the current business model used by the auto industry has shaped the cars we drive. I will go into more detail describing the Riversimple hydrogen fuel cell car, and why we think hydrogen cars might be more appropriate than other alternatives for mass deployment.
