I'm skeptical. At 48 volts, you would either need lots of systems working in parallel, each with their own motor or you would need cables the size of a bench press world champion's arms. The voltage that various EV manufacturers choose has nothing to do with the source of electricity (it has everything to do with the losses due to high current), so you have to figure that they aren't telling the complete story.

They don't mention anything about sitting on a stack of hydrogen tanks or where the hydrogen comes from, either.

Subject: [EVDL] Any truth in these claims?

Found on social media today... sounds somewhat fantastic in both senses of
the word.

Headline:
300 km/h in The World’s First Electric Sports Car with 48 V Low-Voltage
Flow Cell Drive

First para:
It took a long time. The development team at nanoFlowcell Holdings had
worked for several years to make fuel cells directly controllable. Having finally succeeded in achieving direct variable control of a fuel cell in October 2016, the company now wants to demonstrate the potential of direct
fuel cell drive and has built a true eye-catcher in the shape of the
world's fastest eco sports car. The QUANT 48VOLT is the prototype of a new generation of electric vehicles. It is equipped with what is currently the
safest, most powerful, environmentally compatible and economical drive
system for electric vehicles that could be built in series production, and
provides a view of our future mobility.
