Challenge X: Team Texas Tech

04:37 | Matt Kelly | Jun 18th, 2007 8:00am |

Texas Tech competed in Challenge X by converting a Chevrolet Equinox into a hybrid electric vehicle fueled with both hydrogen and E85. The vehicle uses a COBASYS NiMH battery pack to provide energy storage and electric power to the motor. To maintain the high voltage battery pack’s state of charge, the pack is charged primarily through the road with some help from the fuel cell.
