Tuesday, October 25, 2005
"Ford Motor Company is handing over the keys to three hybrid hydrogen Ford Focus Fuel Cell vehicles today as part of a seven-city 30-car program to conduct real world testing of fuel cell technology. The California Air Resources Board (CARB), the California Energy Commission (CEC), and the California Department of General Services (DGS) will each get one vehicle in addition to five already delivered to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District. The Ford Focus Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV) represents Ford's commitment to advancing the use and development of alternative-fuel technologies. It is one of the industry's first hybridized fuel cell vehicles combining the improved range and performance of hybrid technology with the overall benefits of a fuel cell. Ford has been conducting fuel cell research for more than 10 years and believes fuel cell vehicles could be commercially viable by the middle of the next decade." Source: mph-online.com
