Hybrid cars with fuel cell revealed

2

Ford today announced the world’s first fuel cell hybrid electric vehical with plug-in capabilities – the Flexible Series Hybrid Edge.  The vehicles operates in ‘battery only’ for the first 25 miles and can travel speeds up to 85 mph.  When the battery is 40% depleted, it shifts to fuel cell mode (with zeio emission hydrogen) which will recharge the battery for 200 more miles.  Great to see all these advances starting to happen, particularly in the mainstream population.
