This Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE production model is a blatant notice to the whole world about your dedication to greening the environment. Imagine yourself eliciting lots of admiring looks while you cruise around town with your Hydrogen marked car. But even without such blatant advertisement the Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE is hands down the first hydrogen car that hit the showrooms and the consciousness of car enthusiasts in 2008.
The rotary dual-fuel auto which runs on gasoline and hydrogen was the first of its kind when it was first introduced. The Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE car was manufactured by Japanese car maker Mazda for the Norwegian market which launched the HyNor program establishing a 580-kilometer highway which will serve as a fueling infrastructure between Stavenger and Oslo.
The Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE for Norway was based on European specification and it has a manual transmission and left=hand drive. With the dual-fuel system users can easily switch between gasoline and high-pressure hydrogen. The good thing about this auto is the automatic switching from hydrogen fuel to gasoline once it runs out of hydrogen.
