Renault Unveils New Fuel Cell Concept

Renault has introduced a new prototype fuel cell vehicle: the Scenic ZEV H2. The Scenic ZEV H2 is a joint Nissan-Renault Alliance project.

Based on a Renault Grand Scenic, the Scenic ZEV H2 features Nissan’s in-house developed fuel cell stack, high-pressure hydrogen storage tank and compact lithium-ion batteries. Renault engineers and technicians prepared the Grand Scenic architecture to accept the different FCV elements under the floor, thus managing to keep ample cabin space for five adults, and to integrate Renault and Nissan electric and electronic systems.

Nissan’s X-Trail fuel cell vehicle has been undergoing real-world testing for more than two years, with examples leased to government authorities in Japan and testing also underway in the US and Canada. (Earlier post.)

Renault Scenic ZEV H2 and Nissan X-Trail FCV will betaking part in environmental road shows across Europe this summer. From June to September, Nissan will demonstrate the X-Trail FCV in six European countries while Renault will showcase the Scenic ZEV H2 at its Environmental Workshop in Barcelona during the second half of June.

And if they keep working on these things for another 15 years of so they should make good range extenders for all of the PHEVs already being built by then.
