This paper presents a comparison among various vehicles when using fossil fuels and renewable energy. In case of using fossil fuel, we compared 5 key factors among the fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle (gasoline or diesel), battery-powered and hybrid vehicles. Comparison factors are cruising range, carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, waste heat rejection, air pollutants and running noise. According to this comparison, hybrid, battery-powered and fuel cell electric vehicle have better potentials than ICE vehicles. In case of utilizing renewable energy, EV will become the mainstream among vehicles. In addition, FCEV will play an important role until that age. Moreover, we designed a high efficiency FCEV for the purpose of fuel effective utilization. This vehicle has not only fuel cell, but also various energy utilization and storage systems, for example battery, flywheel and PV cell. This vehicle has excellent fuel economy more than 90 km/l.
