1.Other than these marks, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Isuzu, Mazda, Mercedes, Mercury, Nissan, are any other comapanies such as Subaru planning to make e85?
2. How is e85 made. What is it made out of other than corn?
3.Are there any pros and cons about e85?
4.Like the hydrogen fuel cell car can i make home made e85? Can i make a mini car and test?
From the 2009 Detroit Auto Show, Cars.com’s Kelsey Mays takes a look at the 2010 Toyota Prius. It competes with the Honda Insight and Ford Fusion Hybrid.
Ford Motor Company unveiled the world’s first drivable fuel cell hybrid electric plug-in that combines an onboard hydrogen fuel cell generator with lithium-ion batteries to deliver more than 41 mpg with zero emissions. The unveiling happened at the Washington, D.C. Auto Show on January 23, 2007. The vehicle is built on a flexible powertrain architecture that will enable Ford to use new fuel and propulsion technologies as they develop without redesigning the vehicle.
This concept vehicle offers Ford the ultimate in flexibility in researching advanced propulsion technology. Ford can take the fuel cell power system out and replace it with a down-sized diesel, gasoline engine or any other powertrain connected to a small electric generator to make electricity like the fuel cell does now.
The plug-in hybrid is powered by a 336-volt lithium-ion battery pack at all times. The vehicle drives the first 25 miles each day on stored electricity alone, after which the fuel cell begins operating to keep the battery pack charged. This provides another 200 miles of range for a total of 225 miles with zero emissions.
The Ford Edge with HySeries Drive can travel at speeds of up to 85 mph. An on-board charger (110/220 VAC) can refresh the battery pack when a standard home outlet is available, making the concept a true plug-in hybrid.
Ford says this is the kind of technology that we need if America is to become energy independent. Research into hydrogen, including the Ford Edge with HySeries Drive, is part of Ford’s overall effort to address the challenges of climate change and energy independence.

Ford’s new Fusion Hydrogen Fuel Cell vehicle can scream … 207 mph. Perhaps there is room for this alternative power source in America’s future?
this is the hho generator jar on my 1991 ford f150 with a 5.0L V8. i made it out of a 1 quart glass mayonaisse jar with a plastic cap. it has two 6 inch stainless steel bolts bolted to the cap, wired up to a fuse box under the hood, and is wired to a 30 Amp switch under the dash that i use to turn it on/off. it makes plenty of hydrogen and oxygen which is plumbed into the manifold vacumm on the intake. its supposed to up the mpg a little bit, but only time will tell, i havent gotten that far yet. any questions or comments are welcome, thanks for watching.
This is the setup for a 1996 Ford Ranger. This video shows the electrical setup as well as the vacuum. If you have any questions or comments let me know.
Ill be making some more videos soon, please let me know what you think.
