A combination of fuel cells and high-tech batteries could replace the combustion engine in automobiles

Posted May 7, 2004 PT by the Health Ranger (Mike Adams)

People rave about the hybrid electric Toyota Prius. As this review from the UK describes, the Prius is a marvel to experience. It offers a smooth ride, enough high-tech gadgetry to impress even the most geeked-out consumers, and of course outrageous fuel economy thanks to the Toyota Synergy Drive system that combines vehicle batteries with a small combustion engine to minimize wasted energy. The Prius is popular, too: Toyota dealers in the U.S. can't seem to keep them in stock, and manufacturing runs keep getting extended.

But the real story on the Prius is that the vehicle is a bridge to a whole new technology in personal transportation: vehicles that run on fuel cells and batteries. Imagine if the combustion engine were replaced with a fuel cell, and the batteries were enhanced to both store and deliver more power. Then you'd have a clean hybrid vehicle that needed no fossil fuels to operate.

To me, this is the real excitement of the Prius: what it represents in terms of future potential.
