The Hydrogen Tour
Nissan’s hydrogen fuel cell research vehicle is joining several other fuel cell research vehicles in making a stop at Nissan’s Smyrna Test Track as a part of the 31-city, 13-day Hydrogen Tour. The tour is traveling from Portland, Maine, to Los Angeles and is designed to showcase the commercial viability of environmentally friendly fuel cell vehicles.
The stop at the Nissan Test Track is the 24th on the tour.
Nissan is nearing the end of its research and development phase in terms of its hydrogen vehicle, which puts it in an enviable position amongst other car companies.
“We are excited to showcase innovations today to enable zero-emissions mobility in the future,” said Bill Krueger, senior vice president of Nissan North America Inc. “Nissan is committed to being a global leader in zero emission vehicles and has demonstrated that through our ongoing advancements in fuel cell technology.”
Nissan has been working feverishly on designing the latest fuel cell. Their research and development arm has been developing a cell that doubles the power density, costs 35% less than other fuel cells, and is 25% smaller than previous incarnations.
With Nissan 2008 heading off into the sunset and a new year of Nissan cars set to be unveiled, the advent of Nissan’s hydrogen vehicle line-up is exciting for anyone with even a passing interest in the car company.
