動力技術(shù)：贏家

燃料電池

????燃料電池動力技術(shù)一向是雷聲大雨點?。ㄟ€有沒有人記得,，通用汽車曾信誓旦旦地表示，要在2010年前推出一款量產(chǎn)級的燃料電池轎車?）,，不過最近它又火了起來。通用和本田（Honda）宣布,，兩家將聯(lián)手研發(fā)一款燃料電池動力汽車,，在2020年前投放市場,。隨著一直致力這項技術(shù)的本田的加入，這次合作顯得多少更靠譜了些,。這兩家公司也表示將共同開發(fā)用于燃料電池的氫燃料的存儲技術(shù),。而豐田公司（Toyota）最近也確認將在2014年推出一款燃料電池汽車。

Powertrain technology: Winner

Fuel cells

????Long the subject of overpromising and under-delivering (anybody remember GM's vow to get a marketable car on the road by 2010?), fuel cells are fashionable again. GM and Honda announced they're teaming up to develop a fuel-cell system for mass-market cars by 2020. The presence of Honda (HMC), a steadfast supporter of fuel cells that has continued to work on their development, adds credibility to the partnership. In a nod to needed infrastructure investment, the two companies also pledged to work together on storage technologies for the hydrogen needed to power fuel cells. An interested observer will be Toyota (TM), which recently confirmed it will put a fuel cell car on the road in 2014.
