You can see it again at the SAE World Congress coming to Detroit soon.

The new vehicle’s internal combustion engine will be fueled by hydrogen alone. The Hydrogen 7 runs on both hydrogen and gasoline. The mono-fuel car, equipped with a V-12 engine, is a result of more than 25 years of hydrogen development by BMW, said Tom Baloga, vice president of engineering for BMW in the United States.

“It demonstrates BMW’s support for a hydrogen infrastructure by producing an internal combustion engine that produces truly near-zero emissions and simultaneously cleans the air of certain pollutants.”

The car is not a prototype, yet. It represents a conceptual plan that BMW is using to show their support for Hydrogen. For more information: Hydrogen 7.
