Toyota Fine N

Automobiles

The Toyota Fine-N is a hydrogen fuel cell concept car that Toyota showed at the 37th Tokyo Motor Show in October 2003. The hydrogen tanks and a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) are placed in the middle of the car and feed four electric motors of 25 kW each, one in every wheel. A lithium-ion battery serves as a buffer. According to the concept, the compressed hydrogen would allow a range of up to 500 km, mainly through extensive energy recovery when braking. Because it is only a concept car, no real performance figures are known. The German Wikipedia article is short and cites a 2005 technical paper on extending the range of an electric vehicle with a solid oxide fuel cell auxiliary power unit.
