The addition of a Chevy Equinoxfuel cell electric vehicle to its fleet of alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles allows the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to be among the pioneers helping to make fuel cell vehicles a reality over the upcoming years. For the next six months, employees will use the vehicle to conduct day-to-day business activities while sharing real-world performance data.


This initiative is part of Chevrolet's "Project Driveway," an innovative market test in which more than 100 Chevy Equinox electric vehicles powered by hydrogen are being evaluated by a variety of drivers in Southern California, Metropolitan New York and Washington, DC. These vehicles use no fossil fuel and produce zero greenhouse gases.

In addition to test drives by key business partners, government agencies, influencers and media representatives, the general public can volunteer to participate in Project Driveway by logging on to Chevy's Fuel Solutions site at www.chevy.com. Since 2007, nearly 62,000 consumers have jumped on the opportunity to try the Chevy Equinox fuel cell electric vehicle for 2-3 months.
