Chevy Volt E-Flex Fuel Cell Concept
Friday, June 22nd, 2007
In the past six months, General Motors has made some pretty huge developments on the Chevrolet Volt. The little compact has not only been announced for production, but contracts for development of the internal systems have already been awarded. After such unexpectedly positive feedback to the very clever E-Flex series electrical powertrain, General Motors decided to do a second take on the Volt, but this time swapping out its little internal combustion engine for its brand new fifth-generation hydrogen fuel cell, which guarantees zero tailpipe emissions one-hundred percent of the time; a car that debuted this past April in Shanghai, China. This overview focuses on the changes between the original concept and the new hydrogen fuel cell version.
