Revealed at the 19th China International Motorcycle Exhibition in Chongqing, China, the XCELL hydrogen-powered motorbike implements a fuel cell fitted with four storage tanks in the front of the vehicle.

This generates driving force through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen.

X-IDEA suggests that the XCELL motorbike presents a clean solution for the two-wheeler industry and hopes it will be available in the next 10 years.

Luke Lu, Chief Design Officer at X-IDEA, said, “Considering all life evolved from the cell, we are wondering whether two-wheeled vehicles can also evolve in a similar manner.

“On the vehicle itself, XCELL Chassis as well as suspension should be flexible and solid as the bone, instead of acting as cold machine, or we called it the extension of the rider’s limbs.

“Based on these concepts, we brainstormed internally, and this has resulted in a style involving hydrogen power, riding posture (at any time) adjustment, with organic an appearance.”
