- Racing car powered by hydrogen fuel cells opens a new chapter in the history of racing and production cars in the future.A few weeks ago Aston Martin has revealed information about will launch a variant of the Rapide S racing, racing cars powered by hydrogen fuel will attend this year's Nurburgring 24 hours.
Today, renowned sports car maker from England has officially announced that special race car, the Rapide S Hybrid car named Hydrogen.
Aston Martin is proud that this will be the first time a race car using hydrogen as a fuel in an official race, and this is the first time a vehicle CO2 emissions arise not attend a race .
Aston Martin Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen is developed on the platform luxury sedan Aston Martin Rapide S 2014, which provides power for the vehicle is the hydrogen fuel tank and engine block 6.0-liter V12 Rapide S. familiar
According to MotorAuthority, the engine of the Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen has been modified to run on both petrol and hydrogen, with the ability to independently use two types of fuel or a combination of both together.
A similar car Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen also appeared, such as the BMW Hydrogen 7, was introduced in 2006. Due to the use of two different fuel sources, Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen is considered to be one of the first hybrid car Aston Martin, but this is not a hybrid gasoline-or diesel-electric power as usual.
In
hydrogen mode, Aston Martin, along with specialists Global Alset time
of hydrogen, to assert that a vehicle CO2 emissions do not attend races
held at Nurburgring Nordschleife is entirely possible. This is by burning hydrogen with oxygen, "gas" is water generated.
Propulsion systems on the Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen contains the hydrogen fuel tank located on both the front and rear, with the metal pipe. This can allow for flexibility in controlling the combustion process in each particular driving situation, either pure hydrogen or gasoline, or a combination of hydrogen and gasoline.Aston Martin Rapide S Hydrogen Hybrid to Nurburgring 2
The car can reach speeds of 306 km / h and acceleration from 0-100 km / h in 4.9 seconds. The scope of activities Aston Martin Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen is 250 km.
Safety is important that good, and four hydrogen fuel tank that can withstand ultra-high pressure made of carbon fiber has been fitted to the car, but the fuel tank holds 7.7 kg mechanism of hydrogen with pressures up to 5,000 psi - the equivalent of 350 one-party-dominant.
Aston Martin's participation in this year's Nurburgring 24 hour race with the Rapide S Hybrid Hydrogen is part of the 100th anniversary of this famous car company. However, this is also an opportunity to demonstrate the potential of the new technology with engine running parallel hydrogen and gasoline, can overcome the most difficult experiences.
Aston Martin said that if a similar propulsion systems fitted on the commercial version of the Rapide S, the car's price will increase by about 15%.
Nurburgring 24 hour race takes place this year from May 19. This will be the 8th Aston Martin to attend this race.
