Researchers at Ohio University have laid their hands on a unique discovery. They claim that cars in the future would be powered indirectly by human waste.

The scientists have opened up a novel electrolysis technique that utilizes human urine, instead of water, as a generator of hydrogen. Actually urine is fertile in hydrogen.

This makes extracting hydrogen from urine easy. It needs only a fourth of the power needed to extract it from human waste than from water.

The largest obstacle to mass yield of hydrogen has been the massive energy cost in production. But since this novel invention they will make hydrogen as the fuel of preference for the car industry.

Vehicles which are powered by Hydrogen have numerous advantages over other zero discharge cars. The time taken for refueling a hydrogen car is very less when compared to recharging an EV.

Honda is working on their newest generation hybrid cars. Well the spy photographers of the website Roadandtrack spotted the next generation of the Honda hybrid in the Southwest desert doing some performing hot-weather testing.

The new Honda looks a lot on the Toyota Prius. Although the Honda is heavily camouflaged, you can see a lot of their design. The design of this 2010 Honda is highly influenced by the shape that looks a lot on the Toyota Prius.

Here some nice photo’s of this spotted ride.

Read here the full story.

As you can see above, this is the newest Lotus. The Evora. The engine is a 3.5 Liter DOHC V6 VVT-i with 280ps @ 6.400rpm and 342Nm @ 4.700rpm. 0-60mph Sub 5 seconds.
The wheels are 18″ alloys in the front (225/40 ZR18) and 19″ alloys at the rear (255/35 ZR19).

We all hope, that people that gonna ride a car like this will have a good insurance for their car, because the price of this ride is not available yet,.. but we bet this car will cost a lot

Another sad thing is, that we didn’t heard about a some sort of economy engine. Running on hydrogen or something. Because the most manufactures are looking for alternative fuels like hydrogen or compressed natural gas. But maybe who knows…

Today we saw a nice article on the website of CarFuelOptions about the BMW Hydrogen7 series.
This is a nice luxury car, that isn’t for sale yet. BMW is currently testing this ride to see how it acts, and if there are any problems by using Hydrogen for their new generation BMW cars.

Well we searched for some nice images of this  great BMW 7 Series that rides on Hydrogen. And here they are.
