It's interesting to know that GM & the US Portal Service are joining forces to deliver hydrogen powered fuel-cell vehicles with diesel engine assembly. And GM also provides the maintenance, fuel and service of the vehicle.

“We are looking for a vehicle that operates from a fuel source that reduces—or eliminates—our dependence on petroleum products, that is good for the environment, good for our customers and good for the Postal Service,” said Walter O’Tormey, vice president, Engineering, as he accepted the keys to the Equinox Fuel Cell that will be tested in Irvine, CA.

I think role of companies with large fleets and fairly limited driving ranges is key in polishing new tech before mass adoption. Way to go USPS!

I wonder where exactly in Irvine this is.
