Recently, Lexus launched a UTV concept model, that is, a farmer's car, which is often used for beach off-roading, mountain cargo, farm operations and so on. In fact, Lexus launched such a car is still very surprising, after all, as a high-end brand under Toyota, Lexus's products have always taken the luxury route, and now there is a model that can "crawl and roll" in the mud, which is really uncomfortable.
According to the car uncle, the UTV model launched by Lexus is called "ROV", and the full name in English is "Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle", which means off-highway recreational vehicle. The exterior styling of this car retains many of the characteristics of the Lexus family, the L-shaped headlights and taillights are classic Lexus design elements, and the front windshield, steering wheel and center console are inlaid with Lexus brand logo.
The car is smaller in size and equipped with pineapple tires, exposed suspension, semi-open cockpit, roll cage, these configurations can improve the vehicle's off-road performance, even if you accidentally overturn, the semi-open cockpit can also allow the people in the car to escape quickly.
The most surprising thing is actually its power system, this car does not need to refuel, nor does it need to be charged, because it is equipped with a 1.0L hydrogen-powered engine, which works similarly to the internal combustion engine, but the combustion product is only water, which is very environmentally friendly. In addition, the car is equipped with a high-pressure fuel tank to preserve more hydrogen fuel.
It can be seen that the purpose of Lexus to launch this car is actually just to show the hydrogen-powered engine, indicating that Toyota and Lexus and other brands will be equipped with hydrogen-powered engines in the future, which can not only retain the driving experience of fuel vehicles, but also completely pollution-free. Green travel is the goal of all car companies working together to achieve at present, and hydrogen as a driving fuel is indeed a very good idea, but now no car company has announced a more mature plan, which shows that the difficulties are not small, but it will be achieved in the future.
