Hydrogen is a gas and would have to be stored under high pressure in a car to be used as a fuel. In the event of a crash with a car containing a cylinder of pressurized hydrogen the cylinder could rupture and any sort of ignition would cause the very flammable hydrogen to catch resulting in an explosion. A cylinder containing hydrogen in a car is a potetnial bomb. This is why the use of hydrogen is still mostly unseen in the automotive industry
What else can I help you with?
What type of vehicles would use hydrogen fuel?
There are a few different types of vehicles that use hydrogen fuel. You can find cars and other forms of transport that use hydrogen, but the biggest consumer would have to be hydrogen fueled space rockets.
What cars currently exist that make use of a hydrogen fuel cell?
Currently, there are no vehicles on the market which utilize the hydrogen fuel cell. Hyundai has plans to release a vehicle featuring hydrogen fuel cells as early as 2015. However, no vehicles currently exist that use this. There may be vehicles made by private individuals, but no pass produced vehicle has this technology right now.
Can you fuel your car with dirt and water?
No, there is no combustible substance there. However some car companies have concept vehicles that use hydrogen as a fuel; Hydrogen is a gaseous mix of water and oxygen.
What cars use hydrogen fuel cells?
There are currently no Fuel Cell vehicles being sold to the public. Only prototypes have been built.
Is hydrogen fuel safe for use in vehicles and other applications?

Where is hydrogen used as a fuel?
To power vehicles, for example, it is used as rocket fuel to power rockets and planes.
What Ways do we turn hydrogen into energy we can use?
Hydrogen can be turned into energy through processes like fuel cells, where hydrogen combines with oxygen to produce electricity, water, and heat. Hydrogen can also be used to power internal combustion engines in hydrogen fuel vehicles, or it can be burned in a turbine or engine to generate electricity.
What can hydrogen use for?
Hydrogen can be used for powering vehicles,and powering buildings.
Will electric plugs in vehicles be fuel saving and environment friendly?
Currenty electric vehicles are the most fuel efficient vehicles and are better for the environment. Hybrids and hydrogen vehicles are also good for protecting the environment and pretty efficient.
Where is hydrogen being used as a fuel?
To power vehicles, for example, it is used as rocket fuel to power rockets and planes.
Are cars that use hydrogen fuel cells available yet?
Fuel Cell vehicles are available in limited quantities, e.g. http://world.honda.com/FuelCell/ , but the major challenges are that the cells themselves aren't really competitive with other fuel sources yet, and places to refuel the vehicles are scarce.
