The Natrium was powered by a battery pack and a fuel cell using hydrogen produced by a sodium borohydride reformer inside the car. Because the reactant (sodium borohydride, NaBH₄) contained no carbon, the vehicle produced no carbon dioxide.^{[citation needed]} It had a range of 300 miles (480 km), similar interior space to a standard van, and could produce 110 or 240 volt alternating current.^[1]

Name
