PAC-car II

The PAC-car II, developed at ETH Zurich, drives with fuel cell technology (Pile A Combustible=PAC). With a 1000 km lead over more than 200 competitors, the PAC-car II set a new world record in Ladoux (F) in 2005. As an industrial partner, we contributed our experience to the concept, design and engineering of the PAC-car II from the start.
