Hydrogen, not electric, the new fuel focus for car-making giants

Car makers developing hydrogen fuel-cell passenger vehicle prototypes as part of preparations to abandon fossil fuels

Audi and BMW are readying hydrogen-fuelled cars as an alternative to electric vehicles.

Battery power may be the frontrunner to become the car technology of the future, but don't rule out the underdog hydrogen.

That's the view of some major car makers, including BMW and Audi, which are developing hydrogen fuel-cell passenger vehicle prototypes alongside their fleets of battery cars as part of preparations to abandon fossil fuels.
