About the BMW E68
The E68 was BMW’s CleanEnergy flagship, a hydrogen-powered development of the E65 7 Series built between 2001 and 2005. Its 6.0-litre V12 was converted to run on either hydrogen or petrol, producing 260 hp, with liquid hydrogen stored in a super-insulated tank at minus 253 degrees Celsius. Issued to a small number of drivers and public figures worldwide, the E68 proved that BMW could deliver zero-emission luxury motoring without sacrificing performance or refinement, and it remains one of the most fascinating chapters in BMW’s engineering history.
