GM is pursuing gasoline-savings solutions on many fronts on the way to our ultimate vision of hydrogen fuel cell-powered transportation. E85 ethanol burns cleaner than gasoline and is a renewable, domestic fuel that can enhance the nation's economy and energy security. |
Having opportunities like this one at the Science Center to educate both students and parents about hydrogen and hybrid technologies is an important part of the effort to gain acceptance in the marketplace and bring future technologies that will conserve natural resources to the public. We welcome the people of Detroit to this wonderful event with its great insights into the future of energy and transportation. |
The biggest issue right now is the question of growth - there are some potential developments that could by some estimates double the district's student population. That coupled with the funding problems that everybody is facing presents an interesting challenge for us. |
The consumer reaction has been very positive. GM believes it is important to build consumer awareness of Flex Fuel Vehicles. Customers like having a fuel choice -- E-85 or gasoline. |
