Volkswagen Tiguan - HyMotion

HyMotion

At the 2007 Michelin Challenge Bibendum in Shanghai, China, Volkswagen showed the Tiguan HyMotion study powered by a hydrogen fuel cell. The fuel cell produces an output power of 80 kW (110 hp) and the electric motor has 100 kW (130 hp). These figures give the Tiguan HY.MOTION a top speed of 150 km/h (93 mph) and an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 14 seconds.

The lithium-ion battery has a charge capacity of 6.8 ampere-hours and is an auxiliary energy storage system. Power output from the lithium-ion battery is 22 kW. Battery charge is recovered from braking energy or the hydrogen fuel cell.
