Fuel Prices Going High Why Don't We Go For Hydrogen Cars


Soaring fuel prices have triggered a wave of price increases.
As consumers look for alternative energy vehicles to ease their fuel prices, hydrogen cars are quickly becoming popular.

As the name suggest, hydrogen cars use hydrogen instead of petrol.
Hydrogen fuel cells are one of the most popular alternative forms of renewable energy that is being championed by scientist and environmentalists.
The US Government has already initiated plans for hydrogen fuel cells to become mass produced and the automotive industry in responding in kind.
This means that consumers currently have more options when purchasing a hydrogen car as opposed to other alternatives, such as an electric car.
To further compound the financial savings, hydrogen cars are also designed to have better mileage compared to their gas guzzling counterparts.
This is especially so for motorists who commute frequently.
Some are predicting that fuel prices for hydrogen cars will be up to half the amount currently being spent now.


If these savings don't provide enough incentives to make the switch to alternative energy, keep in mind that the US government is also providing tax rebates for hybrid cars.
Hydrogen cars are currently expensive.
Many gas stations are also not equipped with hydrogen pumps, and this can make refueling troublesome.
This comes at a time when the US economy is particularly weak.
Fortunately, several options are available.
Various home conversion kits are also available that will allow you to run your car on a mixture of gas and water.
