โฆ Synopsis
S tarting in early May, General Motors began a new world endurance record for FCVs, crossing 14 European countries and 6200 miles (10 000 km) in just six weeks. The long-distance journey with the company's HydroGen3 fuel cell prototype, based on the Opel Zafira minivan, began in Hammerfest on the northern tip of Norway on 3 May, and finishes on 11 June at Cabo da Roca in Portugal, the most westerly point of continental Europe.
If successful, the GM vehicle will break the record set by DaimlerChrysler two years ago, when its methanol-fueled Necar 5 was driven 3000 miles (4800 km) from San Francisco in California to Washington, DC [FCB, July 2002].
Journalists will drive the vehicle to universities along the route, averaging about 300 miles (480 km) daily. It will endure temperature extremes of near-Arctic Circle conditions to the arid, desert-like conditions of central Spain, as well as steep mountain passes in the Alps.
The vehicle will travel via Oslo (7 May), Gothenburg (10 May), Copenhagen (12 May), Amsterdam
