The Chevrolet Sequel is General Motor's solution to provide the world with a cleaner, petroleum-free vehicle that is better in nearly every way.

Introduced in 2005 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Sequel was the first vehicle in the world to successfully integrate a hydrogen fuel cell propulsion system with a broad menu of advanced technologies such as steer-and brake-by-wire controls, wheel hub motors, lithium-ion batteries and a lightweight aluminum structure. It uses clean, renewable hydrogen as a fuel and emits only water vapor.

A single motor powers the front wheels while two compact wheel-hub motors drive the rear wheels.

Sequel has an unprecedented range of 300 miles between fill-ups and spirited acceleration, attaining 60 mph in just 10 seconds.
