H2O powered car from Japan


Japanese company Genepax's presents its eco-friendly car that runs on nothing but water.The car has an energy generator that extracts hydrogen from water that is poured into the car's tank.The generator that releases electrons that produce electric power to run the car.Genepax,the company that invented the technology,aims to collabrate with Japanese manufactures to mass produce it.

The basic power generation mechanism of the new system is similar to that of a normal fuel cell,which uses hydrogen as fuel.The main characteristics of this car is that no external input is needed.the car will continue to run as long as you have a bottle of water inside for you to add from time to time.
According to the company 1litre of water keeps the car running for about an hour with a speed of 80km or 50miles an hour.The company has applied for a patent and is hoping to collabrate with Japanese automobile manufactures to mass manufacture their invention in the very near future.As fuel prices continue rising and people look for greener alternatives,companies globally are trying to come up with alternatives to reduce pollution.
