We love combustion engines, there’s just something about them that electrons and circuits can’t match.

However, we’re not delusional (mostly), we know that we can’t burn dinosaur juice forever.

But - we may be able to hold onto them, just with a few tweaks. Namely the fuel.

Ford has patented a new, turbocharged, HYDROGEN-powered engine.

It’s an interesting idea. Surely hydrogen isn’t a straight-swap for petrol, will this actually work??

The most common type of hydrogen-powered car uses a fuel cell. You know, like the one James May has.

But we don’t like these as much as they are essentially EV’s but with an on-board power source. No noise, no climbing through the revs and definitely no shifting gears.

Dull, if you ask me.

Compressed hydrogen gas is fed into a fuel cell which converts it into electrical energy rather than burning it.

The process isn’t as complicated as you may think.
