Suzuki’s Green Machine

More green design, but in a motorcycle...

The good folks at Suzuki are serious about going green and have been spotted testing their latest concept, the Suzuki Crosscage Hydrogen Fuel Cell Motorcycle. With no gears, no noise, no clutch and no emissions, this hydrogen fuel cell / electric hybrid two-wheeler just might be the future of motorcycles and is closer to reality than you might think. Seriously, there is a guy riding one in these pictures, you won’t hear it coming, but it is.

I wonder when hybrid and hydrogen come to Europe...

Design: Suzuki

I'm sort of scared about the no-noise issues that'll arise.
Maybe we'll get used to it, but I think it will cause accidents with unaware pedestrians/cyclists in the beginning.

The no noise is also my concern, but hey a playing card between the spokes like in our early years and it's fixed ;)
