Alex Hirschi, aka Supercar Blondie, walks us around the hydrogen-powered Hyperion XP-1 – one of the most advanced cars ever built.

It boasts a hydrogen propulsion system that makes the car spew water from the exhaust utilizing some of the most advanced technology ever added to a car.

Not only is it good for the environment – its user experience is pretty impressive too as it can be charged in a mere five minutes boasting a range of over 1,600km (994 miles).

Boasting 2,000HP and NASA-developed aerodynamic solar-panel air blades that power electronics, the XP-1 can reach 0-100km/h/0-62 mph in just 2.3-2.4 seconds with a top speed of over 350km/h (217mph).
