IT’S HYDROGEN?
Could it really be true? Are Hydrogen vehicles the future?
With demand for 100% EV's shrinking, opportunities for other alternative fuels rises. Consumers have proven their reluctance to rely strictly on electricity to get them from A to B, but that doesn’t mean electric power is totally out.
Automotive Management students at Ferris State University recently weighed in on the future of EV’s and other fuel sources, predicting a market focused on HEV and even Hydrogen as technology advances. Currently, several Hydrogen Powered Vehicles exist, including the Honda CR-V e:FCEV.
Numerous auto makers are experimenting with hydrogen fuel cells with some notable breakthroughs and success. It is very likely this technology can find itself into the mainstream in the near future.

What do you think? Will we be driving Hybrid-Hydrogen vehicles in 5 years? 10 years? Never? We’d love to hear your prediction!

A year of showing up, having honest conversations, and supporting one another’s growth.
Over the past year, 29 women from sales, service, HR, and across the organization participated in our Women’s Mentoring Circles. Together, they focused on building confidence, strengthening leadership skills, and forming meaningful connections that extend beyond the meetings.
