  1. Vicnic is correct as the article here linked below shows. The BMW H7 gets 17mpg on gasoline and it uses 50 liters of hydrogen to travel 100 km, which is 3 times as much fuel (by volume) as it uses in gasoline. There is a lot of expense involved in producing the hydrogen and it's hardly an eco-friendly solution. It's very unlikely that hydrogen will be a feasible fuel until we can use it in a fusion power plant decades from now. The Hydrogen 7 is just the type of fuel it uses turned into a model number. Hydrogen is not a fuel source, it's just a means of storing energy since it always takes more energy to produce it than you can get back by using the fuel, either by combustion or in a fuel cell. If we had a cheap means of producing hydrogen by electrolysis we'd still be better off just storing the electricity in the next-get batteries that will soon be available than by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen.

    So, the BMW H7 is just another hydrogen fuel vehicle like the Honda FCX, except it's much bigger with a huge 12-cylinder engine. The only significance is that some celebrities drive them, probably free from BMW. The Hydrogen 7 is just a model name.


  2. google it for your self.  The car is based on their 7 series, like a 730 or whatever, its their biggest frame with the biggest engines.  The car has a HUGE gasoline guzzler engine that you can run on H2 gas.  Its expensive to buy and even more expensive to fill up with gasoline and/or H2 gas.

    Hydrogen 7 has no meaning.
