Alpine's Alpenglow Hydrogen V6 Roars to 9,000 RPM with Water-Only Exhaust

Alpine’s Alpenglow hydrogen-powered V6 prototype revs to 9,000 rpm, delivering about 740 hp and a top speed of 205 mph while emitting only water vapor. The design uses a pre-chamber and regulator for hydrogen at ~700 bar, with compact storage tanks and standard radiators to maintain aero efficiency. Blue energy-recovery brake lights and a transparent acrylic rear spoiler underscore that this car is a mobile lab for testing hydrogen in high-performance applications, suggesting clean-energy ICE viability without heavy battery packs.

Stellantis Stumbles on EV Push, Bets Big on Combustion Comeback

Stellantis reported a net loss of $26.3 billion for 2025, hit by about $29.9 billion in unusual charges tied to its costly EV push, with net revenues falling 2% to $180.8 billion. CEO Antonio Filosa said results reflect overestimating the energy transition and the need to reset around customers’ freedom to choose from electric, hybrid, and internal-combustion tech. As U.S. demand leans back toward gas-powered vehicles and Europe revisits diesel, Stellantis is pivoting toward combustion and hybrid offerings and expects a mid-single-digit revenue gain in 2026.
