BMW has set a new speed record for hydrogen cars and what is nice to see is that this is not a fuel cell vehicle, this is a V12. Hydrogen can be used as an alternate fuel in internal combustion engines, an idea that is sometimes forgotten with constant talk of fuel cells.
the six-liter 12 cylinder power unit developing an output of more than 210 kW or 285 bhp. This accelerates the BMW prototype to 100 km/h in approximately 6 seconds and gives it a top speed of 302.4 km/h (185.52 mph). Based on the gasoline power unit featured in the BMW 760i, BMW's hydrogen combustion engine boasts the most advanced technologies such as BMW's fully variable VALVETRONIC valve drive.
