Toyota hypes a car that runs on water. ....and electricity
TOYOTA CEO: THIS NEW ENGINE WILL END ELECTRIC CARS," SAYS TOYOTA CEO ABOUT HIS CREATION
Quote:
23:21 ...the motor has a special part called an electrolyzer this part takes in water
23:28 and uses a process called electrolysis to split the water molecules into two different things hydrogen and oxygen
23:37 water is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom stuck together the
23:42 electrolyzer uses a special kind of energy called electricity to break these
23:47 atoms apart the electricity is sent through two special pieces of metal called electrodes.

Isn't that special?
Rather than burning hydrogen in an internal combustion engine, it employs an electrolyzer, a fuel cell and electric motor[s] in a open loop (like the old Stanley Steamer).
