Alpine looks to hydrogen ICE hybrid for AlpenGlow concept vehicle
French premium sportscar maker, Alpine, suggested a hybrid hydrogen ICE powertrain may become its choice for the track focused concept sportster it will reveal.

They are promoting ICE hydrogen burning powertrains as a rapid way of advancing the infrastructure necessary to, ultimately, power the rise of hydrogen fuel cell technology.
