Japanese automakers Toyota Motor Corp. and Mazda Motor Corp. showcased cars fitted with internal combustion engines that run on carbon-neutral fuels, which they see as an alternative to electric vehicles, by entering them in a three-hour road race.

OKAYAMA: Toyota Motor Corp said it will partner with four other Japanese vehicle makers to explore the viability of alternative green fuels for internal combustion engine cars, including hydrogen and synthetic fuels derived from biomass.

The companies, which in addition to Toyota include Mazda Motor Corp, Subaru Corp, Yamaha Motor and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, made the announcement at a race track in Okayama, western Japan, where Toyota is racing a hydrogen car.
