David Booth extols the virtues of the French automaker’s dual-energy hybrid that uses lithium-ions and hydrogen
Game changer. Two words that seemingly crop up every time an emerging electric vehicle technology, or even a new EV itself, makes headlines. But in almost all cases, that new tech or that new vehicle is far from game-changing, and so stokes more skepticism, if not outright cynicism, about the electric vehicle industry. David Booth, aka Motor Mouth, has long called the bluff on many of these so-called game changers, but on this week’s episode of the Motor Mouth Podcast we find the man himself bestowing just such a description on some tantalizing zero emission sorcery from, of all automakers, Renault. Has the French company really solved the puzzle that has perplexed the industry for over a century now? That is, zero emission running with no associated range anxiety.
Following that discussion David recounts an amazing experiment he experienced first hand in an Alberta laboratory involving a very unorthodox method of creation of hydrogen that could very well be, dare we say, game changing.
