BYE BYE OPEC............. BMW showcases cars that run on hydrogen July 13, 2001 Posted: 10:40 AM EDT (1440 GMT) LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- BMW officials traveled to one of the nation's smoggiest cities to show off a fleet of luxury cars that run on rocket fuel, but belch virtually nothing more than water and steam from their tailpipes. Company officials said Thursday that the hydrogen-powered cars are an important step in weaning the automotive industry from the oil that has nurtured it since the internal combustion engine first powered automobiles in the late 1800s. The silver 750hL sedans sport a new type of internal combustion engine that runs on clean-burning hydrogen -- the most abundant element -- instead of gasoline. "It's the cleanest fuel there is," said Burkhard Goschel, a member of the BMW Group board, during a news conference at Paramount studios. BMW has hauled the 10 cars from United Arab Emirates to Europe to Japan and now California to tout the benefits of hydrogen as a fuel source.
