This is a truly English car, but instead of the classic look, as is the case with the XJR, the C-X16 is dressed in ‘modern clothes’. This muscular handsome prototype has a 6-cylinder supercharged V-engine made entirely of alloy materials.

In addition to the internal combustion engine, the concept car features an electric motor that improves the performance of the power unit. In practice, this means that at speeds up to 80 km/h, this car can work on the electric drive without using the engine. At the same time, the electric motor can at any time provide a short burst of energy and acceleration. Such a system is called Push-to-Pass – it allows you to increase the power of the car by 70 kW within 10 seconds. All this extra power can be fully used with just one keystroke on the steering wheel.

Mirai FCV is the world’s first serial sedan with hydrogen engine. The car uses a hybrid fuel cell installation called the FC stack.

As a result of the chemical reaction of the interaction of hydrogen and oxygen, electricity is generated. The reaction takes place without a burning process. The maximum efficiency of converting hydrogen to electric current is an incredible 83%. Consequently, instead of carbon monoxide water comes out of the exhaust pipe. Despite the incredible performance, the popularity of this invention can be judged in the near future.
