Hyundai is also partnering with Enterprise Rent-A-Car to make the Tucson Fuel Cell available to consumers at select locations in the Los Angeles and Orange Counties.
The Canadian Hydrogen Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) Coalition of automakers will be hosting two hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicle test-drive events this week. The coalition is working with government to ensure hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles play the integral role they will need to for Canada to be successful in its strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
These events present an opportunity to see, touch, drive, and learn about the several models of hydrogen FCEVs that will be present from Honda, Hyundai, and Toyota, according to FCEV. Note the conspicuous buy nexium 40mg absences of the Detroit Three.
The Ride-n-Drive coincides with Canada’s hosting of the United Nations World Environment Day and Canada’s Environment week, “in the spirit of raising awareness of the substantial environmental benefits of zero-emission FCEVs powered by hydrogen. As Canada aims to meet the federal government’s announced greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, conventional energy sources such as fossil fuels are no longer a sustainable option. The innovative technology in Hydrogen-powered vehicles will play an essential role in reducing emissions, maintaining healthy air quality, and reducing greenhouse gas emission rates.”
Attendees of the two events will include Mayor Jim Watson and Ottawa city councilors, cabinet members, senators, political staff, elected officials, and government decision makers.
