Corgi cars join fuel-cell generation

摘要

Corgi international recently took the wraps off what could well become the next 'must-have' toy for children and adults alike.Called the H2G0, it made its debut at the recent Nuremberg International Toy Fair in Germany, and is thought to be the world's first fuel cell-powered remote control (RC) toy car.It derives its power from an onboard hydrogen fuel cell, where sun and water supply the fuelling unit.The refuelling station splits water by electrolysis into oxygen and hydrogen, which is captured for use as fuel for the car. It is powered by solar energy and is claimed to charge in less than four minutes and provide about one hour's electricity. The fuel cell powers the motors which, in turn, drive the back wheels.
