The H2R?s mighty 6.0-liter V-12 engine, which draws on BMW's advanced Valvetronic and Double-VANOS technology, is based on the 760i?s gasoline-fueled powerplant. This H2-powered high performer generates 232 horsepower, helping it to achieve a top speed of over 187 mph.

They're planning on making the 7 series available with both gasoline and hydrogen tanks with a special engine that will be able to run either fuel source within the next few years in Germany. Absolutely fantastic that companies are starting to seriously buckle down and work on non-fossil fuel burning vehicles. The sky's the limit it seems.
