(from Ronn Motor
Company) Ronn Motor Company is blending the world of
exotic performance cars with eco friendly fuel solutions with its
first car, the Scorpion. Exclusive styling and uncompromising
performance engineering will deliver the ultimate driving and
ownership experience.
THE SCORPION:
The first automotive
design of several will be a mild hybrid, called the "Scorpion". This
will be a light weight hand built carbon fiber body, over a race car
designed chrome-moly chassis, powered by the latest high tech Acura
V-Tech, V-6, Type S, 3.5 Liter power-plant from the 2008 TL TypeS.
On board will be our Hydrogen on demand system, which provides 130
octane Hydrogen in real time, blended with gasoline in ratios of
30-50%. Coupled with a close ratio six-speed transmission and other
fuel saving measures, the "Scorpion", highway fuel economy will be
in the 40 mpg range, and capable of producing 450 horsepower with
the twin-turbo option.

Hydrogen Fuel Injection (HFI)
Produces hydrogen during
vehicle operation through electrolysis of water using the power
generated from the vehicles electrical system. A small amount of
hydrogen added to the vehicles intake air/fuel mixture allows the
engine to operate with less fossil fuel. Ronn Motor Company will use
this technology in its revolutionary Scorpion to achieve lower
emissions and vastly improved fuel economy.
There are two main kinds of Hydrogen Hybrid automobile. These are
fuel cell vehicles and Hydrogen internal combustion engines, (HICE)
like our first automobile "The Scorpion". Fuel cell vehicles are
electric cars. Hydrogen is pumped into a tank in the car, just as
gasoline. The hydrogen gas is then fed into the fuel cell where it
is electrochemically converted into electricity--with no combustion,
no moving parts and no emissions other than water vapor. The
electricity is used to power the vehicle.
Hydrogen ICE vehicles use a regular combustion engine modified to
use gaseous hydrogen instead of liquid gasoline (much like a natural
gas vehicle is modified). They burn hydrogen or a combination of
gasoline and hydrogen, but since there is no carbon in hydrogen,
there are no or almost no CO2 emissions and only trace amounts of
NOx (oxides of nitrogen). Hydrogen ICE vehicles are typically about
30-50% more efficient than comparable gasoline vehicles.
While the technology has been around for awhile, advances in
technology have made it possible to produce hydrogen on board, on
demand as needed. We have a strategic partnership with
www.hydrorunner.com, which has allowed Ronn Motor Company to bring
to market quickly, a premium exotic automobile, that is a perfect
first step to a solution of the problems, facing the automobile
industry as it enters into this transitional phase.
