I'm skeptical...

For one, it uses multi-voltaic silver paint that transforms the body into one continuous solar panel. It fuels the electric portion of the otherwise unspecified hybrid powertrain that offers through-the-road all-wheel drive and the option of pure electric mobility. There's even a holographic grille at the front that indicates what mode the vehicle is in, similar to what we saw recently on Mercedes' Future Truck 2025 concept. The grille is flanked by LED headlights, with another strip of LEDs around back and tiny cameras that pop out of the hidden a-pillars to act as rearview mirrors (this is a concept, after all).

My favorite German hydrogen toy, a worthy match for the near silent Russky subs,
spends up to 3 weeks at high speeds undetectable without one resurfacing:

And better keep it under water than this:

Talk about a slow electric battery fires, but then a fuel cell charging
station hydrogen mushroom and the metallurgic temperatures involved?

Remember the Hindenburg?
