Volkswagen Tiguan HyMotion hydrogen
The Volkswagen Tiguan HyMotion hydrogen fuel cell vehicle were introduced to reporters during a news conference June 12, 2008 in San Francisco, California.
Volkswagen held a news conference debut of their concept Tiguan HyMotion hydrogen fuel cell vehicle that features a 107 horsepower fuel cell system that produces zero tailpipe emissions. The fuel-cell engine is assisted by an electric motor to create a total output of 134 horsepower.
Power for the electric unit comes from a lithium ion battery back with a maximum output of 22kW, which can be recharged via the fuel cell or through regenerative braking. Together these systems help move the HyMotion from 0 to 60 in 14 seconds with a top speed of 93 mph, while emitting nothing more than water vapor.

Huh? Um, you might want to change that heading so that the phrase makes some sort of sense.
Having said that, love the idea of a hydrogen powered Tiguan!
