Hitachi is doing all it can for the world. Our advanced automotive technologies and solutions are contributing to reduced environmental impact.
Features
- To improve gas mileage, a wide range of probe data is generated.
- Highly precise traffic data is used to provide the driver with the optimal route.
- We are developing high-energy, long-life lithium-ion batteries for use in hybrid vehicles.
- To make possible the use of the low environmental impact second-generation
fuel hydrogen, Hitachi is developing an onboard hydrogen generation system using an organic hydride (methylcyclohexane). This organic hydride can be used repeatedly for the generation and storage of hydrogen. Because it is a liquid at normal temperature and pressure, it is easy to use, and is a good storage and transportation medium because it provides for high hydrogen storage density.
