Japanese company Genepax presents its eco-friendly car that runs on nothing but water. The car has an energy generator that extracts hydrogen from water that is poured into the car’s tank. The generator then releases electrons that produce electric power to run the car. Genepax, the company that invented the technology, aims to collaborate with Japanese manufacturers to mass produce it.

IT USES CHEMICAL ADDITIVE TO EXTRACT HYDROGEN. NOT JUST WATER> GUESS HOW MUCH THE CHEMICAL ADDITIVE WILL COST?!?!?!?!
MOre than regualr gas for sure.
no bullshit
This is absolute bull shit, it takes huge amounts of energy to extract hydrogen from water. Either this thing is powered by batteries or requires some probably toxic chemical to extract the hydrogen.
they mention sea water, so yeah, it would work.
Japan > america
Load of crap
Hrmm, now I am skeptical of you. How do you know there are no peer reviewed articles?
Remember that most of the water on this planet we can’t drink. They didn’t say whether or not salt water would work, but I think it would just fine.
Well, obviously it ISN’T secret.
Yes but will it iron your clothes?
isnt this technology supposed to be top secret? Look up free energy documentary someone in america was killed for having a waterpowerd car
If this is no bullshit people shoud put a big generator on it and a garden hoose in the tank… free electric power.
Yep, good idea this is. They’re trying to turn our crops into fuel and now this? Imagine if bio-diesel and water powered cars are mass produced. I’d rather eat and drink, thank you.
no, you’ve just been brainwashed by a capitalistic system that kills ideas that can’t generate a desired revenue. Do you really think the oil conglomerates want you to own a car that can run on tap water? take off your blinders and read a chemistry book.
it was originally invented before the 60s but due to the cheap price of gas killed it
This woman’s accent is really annoying.
It’s sad to see how gullible some people are. Why aren’t there peer reviewed articles about this amazing discovery? Because it’s just bogus pseudo-science.
easimsutube.. dude your dumb. you need to read a little more on this subject before giving a comment.
some chemical reaction, forget the material, basically the water reacts with it and releases the hydrogen, but the material gets worn away by the reaction…of course, the website says its a chemical reaction, thus its not water fueled, the waters simply used as an energy transfer medium.
its a chemical reaction…look up water powered car on wiki if you want an explanation
Good grief. When are people going to realize you can’t power anything off water alone? At best the “generator” is a battery for electrolysis of water, which means there’s an external power source…But this really just looks like one of the many ‘free energy from water’ scams. It’s sad that Reuters actually ran this.
yeah, how does it work? Maybe it’s some kind of catalyst. But that would seriously revolutionize the world. If they have this technology, then that would mean a water purification plant could power itself. Many people without access to clean water, or water at all, could be much better off. Imagine: it pumps in sea water, purifies it and pumps it hundreds of miles inland. All without external power sources. amazing, if true.
this invention is sexy
Please modify your video Title:
This is an electric car. The generator is just a water powered 300 watt battery charger.
I think it was zinc plates that the water passes through to free the two atoms
