Anhydrous ammonia for NOx reduction
Source: Real World NOx reduction by City-SCR
Diesel vehicles need SCR catalysts to reduce NOx and SCR catalysts need ammonia to work. ASDS™ unlocks the full potential of the SCR by dosing gaseous as opposed to liquid containing ammonia into the exhaust stream. This allows for a NOx reduction of up to 99% in all climates and real driving conditions including slow city traffic.
ASDS™ achieves 3-5 times better NOx reduction in city driving with no CO2 increase (cold engines) and 20% better NOx reduction on motorways (hot engines)
That is an anhydrous ammonia tank being exchanged. Compare that to the 5-10,000 psi hydrogen fool-cell tanks, this is the way to go. Feed the ammonia to a catalyst to break it down into nitrogen... -
VW Golf GTE plug-in hybrid
Not available in the USA, this would give the Prius Prime a run for the money:
Understand that sometimes EU specs don't translate well when meeting EPA standards. However, I've admired the Golfs running around the streets in Huntsville. It really is a practical, sized car.

Car and Driver tests all three Prius Prime trims
2017 Toyota Prius Prime Plug-In Hybrid Test | Review | Car and Driver
It seems as though they still prefer the Chevy Volt over the Prius Prime. But I still believe the Prime is a great car to get people who may otherwise not have looked at a plug-in car at all to try them out and test out what it's like to drive in electric mode.
That said, it would've been nice if Toyota gave the Prime a little bit more oomph when speeding. 0-60 mph in 10 seconds, or about 12 when running in pure EV mode, is going to cause a lot of anxiety for people merging on a busy freeway, especially if they have to go uphill to merge.
