Hydrocar introduces students to the hybrid technology that is fueling today’s automotive revolution!

Just add water to discover the automotive future. This vehicle uses a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane or PEM reversible fuel cell to run on clean hydrogen. Simply add water and observe as hydrogen and oxygen gases are formed in two transparent water containers on the back of the car.

The fuel cell unit combines water electrolysis and fuel cell functions into one device. Its futuristic design, also allows the car to move around obstacles unassisted — the car steers independently of the user once it hits a barrier, and cool blue LED lights flash from inside the cockpit.

Size: 30.5 x 20.5 x 10 cm.

• Fuel cell is recharged using a solar panel
• Assembled car can steer itself
• Components are visible during operation

Hydrocar demonstrates a complete, clean-energy system with solar to hydrogen power generation. Powered by electricity from sunlight, the reversible fuel cell illustrates the principles of water electrolysis, separating hydrogen from water and then recombining these elements to create power in an extremely efficient process.
