Ricky Bobby goes green: Will Ferrel to get the first BMW Hydrogen 7

Ricky Bobby goes green: Will Ferrel to get the first BMW Hydrogen7

Will Ferrell, star of “Talladega Nights, The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” will be the first to be given a BMW Hydrogen 7 for everyday use. As a part of the Hydrogen 7 Pioneer Program, BMW will give industry leaders and prominent figures in entertainment, politics, business and more a BMW Hydrogen 7 for their daily use.

The goal of the program is to state the fact that the BMW Hydrogen 7 is no longer a concept car, but a production model vehicle that has successfully completed the entire Product Development Process, meeting all the standards necessary for driving on U.S. roadways.

Running in hydrogen mode, the BMW Hydrogen 7 essentially emits nothing but water vapor, representing a major step in reducing harmful CO2 emissions.

Ferrell will be the first in a series of Americans who BMW plans to announce in the coming months that will help the company build widespread support of car. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have already shown up in the BMW Hydrogen 7 at the Ocean’s 13 Premier.
