A remarkable return to the world of speed. 🇬🇧🏁
British driver Andy Green, already famous for breaking the sound barrier on land in 1997, has achieved another major milestone with the Hydromax hydrogen-powered car, reaching 406.320 mph (653.9 km/h) at Bonneville Salt Flats.
Powered by twin hydrogen internal-combustion engines producing around 1,600 horsepower, the record highlights the potential of hydrogen technology for high-performance and heavy-duty applications.
From 763 mph and Mach 1.02 in 1997 to a new hydrogen speed milestone in 2026 — an extraordinary chapter in British engineering and motorsport history. 🚀🇬🇧
