Horizon Hydrocar Educatif Kit

Horizon Hydrocar Educational kit

Hydrocar introduces students to the hybrid technology powering today's automotive revolution. The kit demonstrates a complete clean energy system with solar-powered hydrogen generation. Powered by electricity from sunlight, the reversible fuel cell illustrates the principles of water electrolysis, separating hydrogen from water and then recombining these elements to create energy in an extremely efficient process. What's more, the car can steer itself autonomously to avoid obstacles.

This entry-level fuel cell car kit is one of Horizon's bestsellers. It is easy to assemble and use, and comes with an experiment guide on CD and a full assembly manual.
