The Sequel is powered by a fuel-cell powertrain, which includes an electronic control unit and a fourth-generation version of GM's fuel-cell stack. A fuel-cell is an electrochemical device that combines hydrogen fuel with oxygen from air to produce electricity. The only waste by-product of that conversion is water vapour. Methanol fuel cell. ...

Speed, Range, and Size
The Sequel's fuel-cell stack has a rated power output of 73 kW (98 hp), supplemented by a lithium-ion battery pack rated at 65 kW. One 65 kW electric motor drives the front wheels and individual 25 kW wheel-motors (outboard of the rear brakes) drive each rear wheel, providing total tractive power of 115 kW. kW is a measure of power, kilowatt. ...

Although this may not sound like much power, electric motors have different characteristics from internal-combustion engines. Specifically, they achieve maximum torque at start-up. Consequently, according to GM's figures, the Sequel will accelerate from 0-to-96 km/h in less than 10 seconds — more quickly than a Hummer H3 and well within the CUV/SUV norm. Kilometre per hour (American spelling: kilometer per hour) is a unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector). ...

Hydrogen storage and, consequently, driving range are major challenges in the development of fuel-cell vehicles. The Sequel stores 8 kg of gaseous hydrogen in three cylindrical, carbon-composite fuel tanks, pressurized to 700 bar (10,000 p.s.i.) and mounted longitudinally beneath the cabin floor. That is sufficient to provide an unprecedented range of more than 480 km between fill-ups, in spite of the vehicle's considerable 2,170-kilogram mass.

The Sequel is just short of five-metres long (4,994 mm), on an exceptionally long (3,040-mm) wheelbase — the better to accommodate those long fuel tanks. As a result, it is a very roomy vehicle, particularly in the rear seat.
Possible Production GM has made no commitment to building the Sequel. However, GM vice-chairman Bob Lutz has said he would push the company's strategy board to approve full production of a fuel-cell vehicle as early as the 2011 model year. As of October 2006, GM has built only two Sequels. Robert Bob A. Lutz (born February 12, 1932, in Zurich, Switzerland) is the General Motors Vice Chairman of Product Development and Chairman of GM North America, the worlds largest automaker. ...
