EW VAN RUNS ON VOLTS
Electrifying
experience

AUTOMOTIVE engineers are ex-
perimenting with a number of
alternative fuels, including pro-
pane, natural gas and gasohol.

Another alteraative ‘‘fuel’’ has
now been incorporated into the
first assembly-line prcduction
vehicles — electricity.

The idea isn't new. General!
Motors produced an elec-
tric-powered truck in 1916, but it
was sidelined in favor of

gasoline-driven trucks.

Now from GM in England
comes the Griffon — a 5,500-
pound van that is mass produced
by GM’s Bedford Commercial
Vehicle Division.

The van's 36 6-volt lead-acid
batteries require eight hours
recharging on 240 volts AC, and
they have an estimated four-year
lifespan based on nearly 18,000
kilometres of use per year.
