We’ve seen her many times at the Farmer’s Market — but this is the first time we’ve spotted Jennifer Garner in a BMW Hydrogen 7.

Quite possibly the most visible next-gen car that celebrities have been adopting, the BMW Hydrogen 7 is part of a test run that serves to evaluate the technology through a limited-lease program. Mostly, BMW has been handing over the keys to people that can also shine the spotlight — folks like Will Ferrell, Cameron Diaz, Jason Bateman, Edward Norton, and others. Here’s what comedian and car enthusiast Jay Leno said of the vehicle in his review,

“It makes plenty of power for its size; the only thing that has limited it is the choice of fuel. This is a flex-fuel vehicle. It runs on either hydrogen or petrol. If you run out of hydrogen you press a button and it goes to petrol. I’ve been running it on hydrogen just to see what it’s like. It stores the hydrogen at -253C. It’s kept extremely cold so that it becomes a liquid. The trick of course is keeping it cold. I’m told that the tanks are so well insulated that if you poured a cup of hot coffee into them in July, come November it would still be too hot to drink.”
