00:00Hello, come and discover.

00:08This is a new version, X2, for new Dakar.

00:21This buggy is a two test hydrogen engine in severe condition.

00:28The engine and the system are made by engineers from Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Toyota.

00:40And the chassis is made by Overdrive, because together we are stronger.

00:46It's our second participation in Dakar Mission 1000.

00:52In 2024, we had a very good beginning, we achieved every stage.

01:02What was missing last year is maybe a range of kilometers totally.

01:07So we were struggling when it was a bit of dunes, a bit of climbing and stuff like that.

01:14But the rest was a very successful story already.

01:18So we changed the chassis, we cut the chassis in two pieces.

01:22We made a different car and we extended the capacity of hydrogen.

01:28Now I think we have seven kilos, seven and a half, something like this.

01:33On the normal stage, we can do around 150 kilometers.

01:39Now we increase, I don't know for how many percent, but we increase the performance of

01:43the car.

01:45The car will be faster and will be also more powerful.

01:53The hydrogen is the future, because hydrogen is simple.

01:58You have available a lot of hydrogen.

02:01The main goal, what we are doing, is a combustion engine we don't have.

02:05And this is why we struggle and we try in Dakar to improve the small vehicles, to do

02:11it exactly the proposed for the future, be more safety for us.

02:19Last year is very, very grateful for us, because we finished Dakar and for us is a big, big,

02:24big goal.

02:25It's some brand new technological we don't know exactly, but day by day we're learning

02:33a lot.

02:34And I think this year we're going to get more feedback of the evolution of the engine and

02:39the proposed why we are doing.
