Sustainable gasoline in action

First car ride powered by solar gasoline

Synhelion has fueled a car with solar gasoline for the first time ever – a global first for road transportation. The 1985 Audi Sport quattro, part of the AMAG Classic car collection, became the first vehicle in history to run on solar gasoline produced at Synhelion’s industrial-scale plant DAWN in Jülich, Germany.

First motorcycle ride powered by solar gasoline

Solar fuel hits the road. For the first time ever, Synhelion has fueled a vehicle with its renewable solar fuel – a historic step toward net-zero. And it wasn’t just any vehicle: Professor Aldo Steinfeld, the visionary behind the technology, rode his Harley-Davidson powered by Synhelion’s solar gasoline from plant DAWN.

Global CO₂ emissions
Passenger vehicles account for around 10% of global CO₂ emissions.

Market size
Renewable gasoline demand is expected to reach 96 million tons per year by 2050.

Defossilization strategy
Sustainable fuels complement electrification in road mobility.
