   Near Zero Emissions Off-Highway Adventures                                                   Source:  Lexus Combustion Engine Powered by Hydrogen Lexus has developed an especially cool, hydrogen powered recreational off-highway vehicle (ROV) concept.  The Lexus ROV is a piece of unique automotive technology.  The powertrain is breakthrough.  It has a 1.0-liter combustion engine that is fueled by compressed hydrogen.  Lexus says it operates just like a gas- powered combustion engine with one exception: there are near zero emissions. New Technology The hydrogen combustion engine is a look into the future of greener, cleaner driving.  The compressed hydrogen is stored in a high- pressure tank in the rear of the vehicle.  Lexus says the hydrogen fuel is pumped into the engine by what Lexus calls a "direct hydrogen injection".  The vehicle produces near zero emissions. There is only a tiny amount of engine oil that burns during operation. Next Steps to an Epic Ride Lexus is con

Toyota's Green Combustion Engine - Fueled by Hydrogen

  New Hydrogen Powered Internal Combustion Engine                                                  Source:  Toyota Toyota's Portfolio of Green Automotive Technologies Toyota is developing an experimental hydrogen car.  The GR Yaris internal combustion engine in the Toyota Corolla Sport has been converted to run on hydrogen.  Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda has driven and even raced the green vehicle.  He believes the development of this hydrogen powered engine technology could keep internal combustion engines on the road and running in a carbon free world by being fueled with clean hydrogen not carbon emissions producing gas.  CEO Toyoda also believes this technology could save millions of automotive jobs. Near Zero Emissions Driving The Toyota chief executive feels that carbon is the enemy of the environment not the internal combustion engine.  Using hydrogen to fuel the Toyota Corolla Sport experimental car keeps emissions very close to zero.  Currently, a small amount of the engine burns
