BMW's new fleet of hydrogen-powered cars is focused on "extinguishing" cars that emit CO2 into the atmosphere
The BMW Group has launched an amazing technology in the automotive market! These are the new cars that serve as an alternative to free vehicles of CO2 emissions in nature, the new cars powered by hydrogen. According to the CEO of BMW, the new cars powered by hydrogen are the missing piece for the sustainable automotive industry, according to the website Olhar Digital.
BMW's hydrogen-powered cars will go into operation in 2023 for testing and also for different groups of people. The so-called BMW iX5 Hydrogen, which is being produced in Munich, uses fuel cells and reaches a speed of over 180 km per hour.
The BMW vehicle stores hydrogen in its two tanks and can be filled up in approximately 3 to 4 minutes. The vehicle has a range of 500 km still in tests.

- Volkswagen leaves the automotive industry in shock! New electric car runs an impressive 1.000 km on a single charge and promises to beat its competitors
The operation of the cars will still take place in 2023, even though the fleet is small, with less than 100 vehicles, defined to be used internationally for demonstration and testing purposes for various target groups.
BMW's Hydrogen
According to BMW President Oliver Zipse: Hydrogen is a versatile energy source that has a key role to play in the energy transition process and therefore in climate protection.
It is also one of the most efficient ways to store and transport renewable energy. We must use this potential to also accelerate the transformation of the mobility sector, as hydrogen is the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to emission-free mobility.
“One technology alone will not be enough to enable climate-neutral mobility around the world,” he concludes.
Hydrogen, according to the International Energy Agency, is a versatile energy carrier with a huge variety of functions and applications, and that can be inserted in the industry and also in the automotive sector.
The giant BMW is one of the companies that seeks to research as much as possible the various applications of hydrogen, so that zero-emission technology is increasingly present in the world. Other companies also looking to promote hydrogen include Toyota, Hyundai, and Riversimple, which is also working on hydrogen-powered cars.
