Toyota and Yamaha to develop a hydrogen-powered V8 engine:
History is proof that when Toyota and Yamaha team up to build an engine, the result is wildly cool. The Lexus LFA’s V10 was a shared effort between the two, and it’s still arguably the best-sounding production engine ever made. Today’s news concerns another engine developed between Toyota and Yamaha, but this one runs on hydrogen.
Power from this hydrogen-powered engine isn’t far off the figures Lexus is able to achieve with old-fashioned gasoline. When run on hydrogen, Yamaha claims 455 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque . “Hydrogen engines house the potential to be carbon-neutral while keeping our passion for the internal combustion engine alive at the same time,” said Yamaha Motor President Yoshihiro Hidaka. “Teaming up with companies with different corporate cultures and areas of expertise as well as growing the number of partners we have is how we want to lead the way into the future.”
