Hydrogen Highway Promoted in San Diego

A road trip to show the viability of hydrogen fuel cell cars took off from Chula Vista this morning. KPBS Environment Reporter Ed Joyce says the nine-day tour to Canada is intended to promote zero-emission vehicles.

Twelve high-tech fuel cell cars and SUVs from seven manufacturers are on their way to Vancouver British Columbia.

Todd Suckow, a senior engineer with Hyundai, is driving the company’s SUV.

He says the advantage of hydrogen is that it can be made from renewable sources and there are no tailpipe emissions.
