The hydrogen just makes electricity from the hydrogen. It produces water vapor.but hydrogen is the smallest atom and will leak very easy. It is the most explosive of all gas . It would represent a very explosive problem. They have had accidents in advanced liabilities ,Don't think the common man is ready for the problems that come with the use.

Hybrid engines have a gasoline engine and an electric motor. Engines that burn pure hydrogen or hydrogen fuel cells have water as exhaust, not hybrids.

a hybrid car uses a internal combustion engine to charge batteries and part time power the car.
a fuel cell car uses fuel cell to supply power to run electric motors that run the car

there is no engine in a fuel cell car. so no oil or other contamination from a engine.
the only source of contamination would be from the hydrogen, the oxygen from the outside air or from the fuel cell itself.

It will be contaminated because it came into contact with a man made item. Don't you realize that all of this hype is just about trying to eventually kill off mankind?

It should be pure water, if contamination like oil, coolant, or any particle, means:
1. If minute particle is found on the water from the exhaust, it means two things (a)your air filter is not working (b)chips of metals from the engine.

2. If oil is present, this means that the engine gasket or piston rings needs to be replace.

3. If coolant is present, it means you have to change your engine block.

Basicaly a combustion engine is sealed and contamination should not be present on its exhaust.
