so requires more energy than you can get back from burning the hydrogen.

A couple years ago, GM was testing cars running on a mixture of water
and naphthalene. It had approval for ultra low emissions certification
and the testing was being done in Arizona. GM said they abandoned the
development because of freezing problems. I have heard nothing about
it since.
It is puzzling that the collective knowledge of the world cannot come
up with something better than oil. As you say, it takes more energy to
break down the water than you get, but that's because we have not
unlocked a technique that works.There is tremendous energy in chemical
bonds that could be release if we figured out how.

It looks promising . Can you wait?

Hare brained compared with natural oils which can be used in any diesel engine.

Hardly surprising.

Nope, no magic wands to wave to do anything about the fundamentals.

You cant do anything about the basic physics and chemistry.

We already did, thats why gasoline is such a viable transport fuel.

Hydrogen from nukes is much more promising.

Dont need to wait.

The claims just don't add up - you put water in, break it down, burn the
results, and get water out, and produce a net power gain to boot. That
makes as much sense as putting a pile of wood ashes in your fireplace and
expecting it to burn and keep your house warm.

We are just the messengers. Why don't you complain to the news agency
that provided the video or contact the company that made the car?

Yes, it does :)
But it works less efficiently than tossing the fuel cell and using the
same amount of electricity to charge up a couple batteries.

I was watching the Beverly Hillbilly's today and Jethro had built
a car that ran on water and it was running beautifully. Then he
switched to gas and it broke down. Turned out he had put the valve
in backwards and actually it was the water that broke down.
Those Clampett's were ahead of their time.

They're all going about it the wrong way. The key is to get back to
that medieval technology, the water wheel. See, your passenger dips
into a tank with a ladle, pours it on, and off you go. Works equally
well in reverse.
