The Foenix H2 is equipped with a 6.2L V8 hydrogen internal combustion engine supercharged by a mechanical compressor and developing 450 kW (612 hp) at a speed of 6500 rpm and a torque of 700 N.m at 4500 rpm. Based on a proven classic 4-stroke architecture, this engine is equipped with an innovative direct hydrogen injection system that allows this gas to be used as fuel.
The dihydrogen molecule has a high mass energy density (1 kg of this gas is equivalent to approximately 3 kg of gasoline), its combustion generates only water vapor and a small quantity of nitrogen oxides.
Developed and integrated by Solution F, it benefits from the technological expertise of motorsport allowing testing in the most extreme conditions.
Throughout its rich history, Solution F has multiplied innovations both in terms of chassis and motorization. The Foenix H2 is the perfect illustration of this combination of skills, enhancing a successful GT chassis and the expertise recently acquired by the Provençal company in hydrogen combustion engines.
Our teams focused on the aerodynamic efficiency of the full carbon bodywork designed in CFD. The Foenix is equipped with a V8 engine which offers the best cost/performance ratio for this level of power.
Given its operating cost, its recognized reliability and its ease of handling, it represents a real alternative to current GTs.
On Saturday 15 June 2024, the Foenix H2, the French GT car powered by a hydrogen-fuelled V8 engine designed, built and developed by de Solution F, shone in a historic drive in front of the Le Mans 24 Hours crowd, illustrating the full potential of this new technology.
