According to a press release by Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, five hydrogen hybrids, Toyota Prius, were delivered to Burbank as part of a program to develop and demonstrate hydrogen hybrid vehicles in Southern California.
Burbank, and four other cities including Ontario, Riverside, Santa Ana, and Santa Monica are participating in the program. Each city and AQMD headquarters will operate five hydrogen hybrids for five years each. Each location will also demonstrate hydrogen-fueling stations.
Hydrogen fueled vehicles are currently limited in range, but a hybrid should be able to travel farther between fill-ups. The biggest concern and drawback to hydrogen fueled cars is the possibility of fire.
