Hydrogen-powered cars are catching on with major automobile manufacturers, but will attempts to gain uneducated consumers in this new technology dissolve into thin air?

It appears this new method of powering cars is here to stay, although it looks to be a slow process for it to take the whole world by storm.

Hydrogen cars are gaining support from federal and state governments in the United States because of the drastic increase in gas prices, and the growing threat to our environment from emissions released by fossil fuel. President Bush and California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger have campaigned with the promise of allocating funds to the development of the hydrogen-powered car business.

Mercedes-Benz, Ford, General Motors, Honda and Hyundai have already developed hydrogen cars. Nissan, Toyota and Volkswagon also have hydrogen fuel cell cars in development.

Hummer released a model that can be converted to hydrogen power with a price tag of $60,000 in addition to the retail price of the vehicle.

Buyers can expect to purchase expensive models – most more than $150,000 – until mass production sets in. Leaders in the industry believe that might not take shape for the next 10 to 20 years.

The cost to build a hydrogen fill station in California is close to $600,000. Schwarzenegger announced his intentions to install hydrogen filling stations every 20 miles along major highways in the state before 2010, but analysts believe that goal is too ambitious because of the cost.

The natural environment would benefit from increased usage of hydrogen-powered fuels, but until a majority of motorists utilize this new form of technology, the pollution emitted from fossil-fueled cars will dominate the air. So the hydro-car buyer in the next couple of years can be assured that his or her vehicle is keeping the air clean, but that will be negated by the neighbor’s gas-guzzling SUV.

Researchers and scientists fear that hydrogen-powered vehicles will lose public-interest momentum the longer they are not widely visible in the market. However, government officials, like Bush and Schwarzenegger, understand any form of energy deviating from the reliance on imported oil or gas can boost the economy. The support to fund development in this project is bipartisan and widespread.

Given this fact, and the reality that our natural environment will not improve in its current state, interest in further developing the hydrogen-powered vehicle will increase as the years go by instead of decrease.

Hydrogen Car Conversion (NEW!) - Hydrogen fuel burns up to eight times more efficiently than petroleum and there are hydrogen cars which are now for sale to the general public so the concept isn’t just a dream anymore. Unfortunately most hydrogen cars are really expensive and out of reach of many car consumers. If you can’t afford something in the 150K price range than a conversion is probably your best bet...

Scorpion Hydrogen Car - The V-6 Engine takes this sleek original from 0 to 200mph fast enough to make Lightening McQueen’s tires spin. For those readers without kids, that’s another way of saying fast, really fast. The Scorpion hydrogen hybrid can move, it’s unbelievably sexy and it’s green. Environmentally green that is, with zero emission proprietary technology unlike any other car in the world...

FCX Clarity Hydrogen Car - Greener roads are ahead with the Honda FCX Clarity hydrogen car. This zero emissions car uses domestic fuel to help slow the increase in greenhouse gases. With a hydrogen tank, high performance and superior safety, the Honda FCX Clarity hydrogen car promises to be the choice vehicle of the future...

X7 Hydrogen Car - Hydrogen fuel is one of the most compelling innovations of the 21st Century, with countless possible future applications. We are starting to finally see hydrogen powered fuel cells used in mainstream technology, although as of yet, many designers and manufacturers still do not realise the potential of this technology. Thames and Kosmos, the company famous for their science kits, have recently unveiled their latest innovation, the X7 Hydrogen car...

Do Hydrogen Cars Work - Do hydrogen cars really work? The answer is definitely “yes”. Because fossil fuels are destined to run out eventually, hydrogen was introduced as a fuel source in a combustion engine rather than gasoline. There are also innovators using hydrogen to create electric energy to power up a vehicle instead of using gas. As research and development continues, hydrogen cars promise to be the green wave of the future...

First Hydrogen Car - Hydrogen, the first element on the periodic table and the most abundant element in the universe, has powered the fusion reactions of stars for billions of years. On Earth, attempts to use it as a fuel date back over 200 years, when Swiss inventor Francois Isaac de Rivaz used both hydrogen and oxygen gas to power the first internal combustion engine in 1806. While Rivaz’s vehicle was commercially unsuccessful, additional attempts were made to harness hydrogen as a fuel over the next 150 years, meeting with limited success. In 1966 the world’s first hydrogen Car, the 1966 GM Electrovan, was built, and the age of hydrogen cars as we know them was born...

Hydrogen Car Plans - The auto industry worldwide is facing unprecedented challenges. In addition to the financial hits taken recently, the auto industry has also been perceived as stagnant and out of touch. Some blame the current financial crisis of the auto industry on a lack of true innovation. Yet, innovation is taking place, and a whole new breed of cars is on the horizon. Hydrogen powered cars are the next new thing, and they’re coming sooner than you may think...

Honda Hydrogen Car - After years of evolution, Honda hydrogen cars are on the road. Committed to pursuing clean energy sources, Honda put the first dedicated platform hydrogen fuel cell vehicles on the market so everyday people have the opportunity to drive them...

Hydrogen car conversion - Hydrogen-powered cars are likely a decade away from mass production, but can the consumer really wait that long, especially in light of record gas-price increases in 2005? In what has become the “Now Generation,” scientists and consumers alike are anxious to experience this very moment the opportunities hydrogen-powered vehicles have to offer. They can not wait to eliminate the dependability on gasoline. They hunger to use a fuel cell to run an electric motor, leaving the nightmares of spending more than $3 a gallon of gasoline behind....

Hydrogen car manufacturers and prices - Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are now available, with many automobile manufacturers revealing models this year in their showrooms, but affordable styles are still about five to 10 years away. General Motors, which currently has a fleet of six HydroGen3 vehicles in Washington, D.C., announced in October that by 2010 it will widely develop economically viable models of the hydrogen-powered vehicle. The largest automobile manufacture is already in the process of building a New York fleet of 40 cars under the U.S. Department of Energy's Infrastructure Demonstration and Validation Project. General Motors puts a price tag of...
