RX-8 Hydrogen RE - Dual Fuel Car
Thursday, February 16, 2006 7:31 AM
Japan's Mazda Motor Corp. said on Wednesday it will begin leasing a dual-fuel car that can run on both hydrogen and gasoline in the auto industry's latest effort to reduce oil consumption in vehicles. Mazda said the RX-8 Hydrogen RE, based on its popular RX-8 sports car, gets around these problems by running on gasoline in the absence of a hydrogen fuelling station, and using existing engine parts and production facilities to lower costs.

I don't even know where I could get the hydrogen from. So it would cost me alot extra for the hydrogen car, and then I would never be able to use the hydrogen part of it. I'll just buy a regular until there is a hydrogen pump at the local citgo.

Your not making me sound stupid. The car runs of the hydrogen part of the H2O. And the byproduct of a hydrogen car is water aka H2O. So filling it with water will do nothing.
