In this case, the fuel mentioned is methanol, which is quite different from the much more oft-used gasoline/petrol used in your car. This is a fuel used in top of the line racing circuits, but otherwise, remains out of vehicles. But the point here is not the idea that it is using fuel, but rather, the fact that fuel cells are reported to have far longer energy outputs compared to that of battery counterparts. Instead of a 5 hour battery charge on your iPhone, now you've got a 4-week long charge on your Razr.
