G.M.’s Fuel-Cell Test: 100 Cars, No Charge

AS Honda prepares to lease a handful of fuel-cell cars to consumers, General Motors is offering its own hydrogen cars free, according to the New York Times.

G.M. is preparing a January rollout of Project Driveway, which will park more than 100 Equinox Fuel Cell crossover wagons with selected drivers in Westchester County, N.Y.; Orange County, Calif.; and Washington, D.C.

G.M. said the research project would give it the world’s largest fleet of fuel-cell cars driven by consumers, who can apply for no-cost, three-month tests of the Equinox at chevrolet.com/fuelcell. For recipients of the Equinox, each valued at up to $1 million, G.M. will even cover the cost of hydrogen fuel and insurance.
