As global warming concerns and emission standards threaten vehicle production in the United States, General Motors is exhaustively researching alternative-fuel technologies, including Hydrogen Fuel Cells. A fuel cell creates electricity to power an electric motor via an electrochemical reaction, utilizing Hydrogen (created from water through electrolysis). GM has chosen to showcase its Hydrogen Fuel Cell system in its crossover SUV, the Chevrolet Equinox — bucking the anti-SUV trend by creating a vehicle that can carry the entire family and its cargo all while emitting nothing but water from the tailpipe. Currently Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell Vehicles are only available through the Project Driveway Program — a user trial designed to collect as much information as possible from drivers and onboard data collectors. GM hopes to use this data to one day incorporate Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology into other vehicles. Check out the video below to learn all about the Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell Vehicle with kbb’s Video Production Editor Beth Lear-VanderYacht.

    All tension aside, we all have our strengths and weaknesses. I’m an artist; I don’t know much about cars yet, but I’d like to someday. That way i could diagnose and repair on my own, and not rely on dealership rip offs. I’m in college for graphic design now, but I’ll study my vehicles eventually. Thanks for helping!

    Also, the dealership didn’t even know what was wrong for the past few days. They finally discovered it was a battery shortage, and has replaced it. And unlike you, i can run to Youyube for my problems because I’m very resourceful. The problems been solved. It doesn’t matter how it was solved. Case closed!

    You’re excused for your obsession with vehicles, eventhough the main point of having them is TRANSPORTATION! The manual wasn’t DETAILED ENOUGH.

    Umm, excuse me for operating one for the first time, and trying out all the features in spare time instead of risking doing it while driving. It’s not dumb because IT WAS NEW TO ME! THAT MEANS I HAVEN’T BEEN DROOLING OVER IT LIKE YOU! Also, where I live (South Dekalb, GA) There aren’t very many hydrogen stations. Being staright from the dealership, i’d have expected it to have no problems. I’m no mechanic either. I just need a good vehicle. It has a warranty anyways.

    If your equinox is completely drained of power, to point where our key is stuck in the ignition and nothing operates ( not even the locks and alarm), is there a way to recharge it at your home while it’s in your garage?

    Are the connections of the nozzle to the input part of the car being made to work with all potential Hydrogen vehicles or are all manufacturers going reak havoc by creating their own design? GO Hydrogen! Mass Market it!
