About Vision Industries Corp

Vision is a developer of zero emission hydrogen fuel cell/ plug-in electric powered vehicles and will be providing fueling solutions by building, owning and operating hydrogen fueling stations. Vision's proprietary hydrogen fuel cell / plug-in electric drive system combines the superior acceleration of a battery powered electric vehicle with the extended range provided by a hydrogen fuel cell. Vision is the creator of the TyranoTM, the world's first hybrid plug-in electric/hydrogen fuel cell -powered heavy duty class 8 truck, featuring: zero emissions, reduced operating cost and superior performance. Vision is also in prototype development of the CheetahTM, which is intended to be the world's first hydrogen fuel cell/ plug-in electric-powered  supercar, featuring: zero emissions, accelerating 0 to 60 MPH faster than production Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches and the battery powered Tesla

Competitive Advantage

The Vision heavy-duty class trucks are substantially less expensive to operate on a per mile basis than diesel and natural gas powered trucks, the cost savings on a per mile basis versus diesel and natural gas, is expect to range from 35% to 65%.Our Vision hydrogen/electric drive system has approximately 400 HP and 3,200 ft/lb of torque available; almost double the pulling power of a conventional diesel truck.

  • About Hydrogen as a fuel: Hydrogen is the answer to our long-term clean energy demands. When produced with renewable resources, the resulting "Green" hydrogen is truly environmentally harmless and sustainable. Hydrogen is carbon free and is naturally the most abundant solution to our energy crisis. A hydrogen fuel cell converts 1 kg of hydrogen into approximately 19KW of electricity and all hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are electric powered.
  • Battery vs. Hydrogen: Hydrogen is the most efficient energy storage medium on a pound for pound basis. The Cheetah Hydrogen drive system, containing 4.8 Kg of hydrogen, produces a usable 94KW of electricity and weighs approximately 410 lbs or 4.4 lbs per KW. The Tesla's 53KW battery pack weighs 992 lbs and releases a usable 45KW or 18.7 lbs per KW. To replace the Cheetah's 410 lb hydrogen drive system with equivalent energy batteries, the replacement battery pack would have to weigh 1,750 pounds! The weight savings translate into better performance and greater range.
