Suzuki is going to show 3 Hydrogen Fuel Cell concepts at the Tokyo Motor Show later this month. The first is the SX4-FCV with a 80 kW hydrogen fuel cell stack and 10,000 psi storage tank. The car will be powered by a 68 kW electric motor that is shared with the Swift Hybrid and also includes regenerative braking to aid in power production.
Next up is one of Suzuki world famous scooters the Burgman sporting a 70MPa hydrogen tank, the highest-pressure tank used on a bike this far. This should give the scooter a usable riding range. No word on what sort of power or performance stats will be. And the tank is mounted within a robust frame for safety.
Last but not least is the MIO electric fuel cell wheelchair. The MIO will have a direct-methanol fuel cell that has replaceable fuel cartridges that will allow for an unlimited range as long as fuel stations are available.
Suzuki will have more info and products coming up at the Tokyo Motor Show this October.
