French manufacturer Ligier has partnered with Bosch to create a hydrogen-combustion GT racer that will be revealed at Le Mans
As a result of the modifications, the JS2 RH2 is expected to be slightly heavier than the base JS2, which weighs 1055kg.
Bosch Engineering president Johannes-Jörg Rüger said: “As an engineering service provider, we're open to technology and see it as our task to explore the various technical options on the path to climate-neutral mobility in parallel and to devise the best solution in each case for all the requirements of our worldwide customers. In this context, hydrogen propulsion has great potential, especially in motorsports and high-performance sports cars.
Ligier president Jacques Nicolet said “we must provide the innovations to meet tomorrow's challenges” and that it was part of the firm's plan to become a “preferred partner of automotive manufacturers for integrating new energies”.
