Hydrogen 3-Wheeler Testing |

 |

 |
|
|
 |
| ECD Ovonics has successfully converted and developed a Bajaj Automobiles, India, CNG-run three-wheeler to run on hydrogen fuel. Trial runs, in extreme cold climatic conditions, earlier in 2005 produced a rate of 130km per 900gm of hydrogen (equivalent to four liters of petrol). Scientists believe the end-product could yield much more. The three-wheeler was later introduced at the annual convention of the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers in New Delhi. |
