Ford joins with the University of Melbourne to study hydrogen engine development in Australia

Ford Motor Company of Australia has confirmed its support of a long-term research project by the University of Melbourne to study efficient and practical hydrogen fuelled vehicle technologies.

The first stage of the project aims to develop, build and test a hydrogen-fuelled turbo-charged Ford 6-cylinder engine using advanced combustion technology (HAJI – Hydrogen Assisted Jet Ignition). The aim of the study, which will build on many years of hydrogen combustion research at the University of Melbourne, is to demonstrate the characteristics and benefits of hydrogen assisted internal combustion.
