HICE Hydrogen-powered vehicle made by high-schoolers
For those that are interested in green vehicles are probably looking to electric or even hydrogen-powered cars.
The hydrogen-powered car that you see in this picture was, believe it or not, designed by a group of high-school students. They are from the Los Altos Academy of Engineering in California, and they have been working on cars like this for a while, in conjunction with companies like Toyota and Boeing.
This particular vehicle, known as the HICE (Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine) vehicle was nearly completed back in February. It is powered by a four-stroke Honda engine, and has three wheels.
I’m pretty amazed that a group of high-school kids were able to build the HICE. Granted, it lacks a little bit on the interior room, but it is better than what I would have done in high school. I probably couldn’t have done the flame-job on the sides.
Not only do I think its terrific for these kids to do something constructive, but it looks like they’re on one of those “save the Earth” crusades. That’s good, because I think I only heard of Earth Day during my Senior year, which was in 1990.
Considering what these kids are doing in high school, I can’t wait to see what they do after college. Maybe we’ll see some serious hydrogen vehicles on the road by that time.

Hydrogen Fuel is very promising, i only hope that we can mass produce soon enough.~:’

That car is almost an exact replica of a car in an old SNES game – FZERO! I like it!

hydrogen fuel is not yet very practical and cost effective today`”`

Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to your webpage? My blog is in the very same niche as yours and my visitors would genuinely benefit from a lot of the information you present here. Please let me know if this okay with you. Regards!

AWESOME!!! 5 STARS!!!!! We need minds like these young people, lets encourage this positive behavior
Even though I am sure after the military sees this vehicle, they will recruit these kids to help them build vehicles of mass destruction that run on water 
Look at what happen to Einstein building the Atomic bomb.
