BMW’s Hydrogen 7 is an extraordinary undertaking. Powered by a V12 engine, the car can run on either gasoline or hydrogen, and seamlessly switches between the two. The hydrogen is stored onboard as a liquid, which requires keeping it at -253ºC, or just above absolute zero! BMW developed solutions to overcome the many challenges associated with hydrogen storage, as the video discusses. We’ll discuss the key car components, performance figures, range, storage challenges, and drawbacks. We might have a few celebrity appearances as well.
