The layout of the vehicle is comprised of a fuel tank, a fuel reformer, a hydrogen fuel cell stack at the front and an array of batteries at the base. For simplicity, I've left out the controllers, inverters, and other components which regulate the electric current to the hub mounted electric motors.

Urbit | Extended range EV
This was my thesis project for 2013. The concept is an extended range EV that bridges the gap between the future of hydrogen fuel cells with current available fuels. The vehicle itself is a two-seater designed for daily commutes to and from the city.
The concept vehicle aims to solve the fundamental problem of bringing fuel cell vehicles to mass market by utilizing an on-board reformer that processes hydro-carbon rich fuels such as gasoline to create hydrogen. The process itself was not developed by myself and major corporations currently own the rights.
