Phoenix, AZ - January 2009, AFVTech is awarded a Toyota Motor Company Tapestry Award for its involvement in the Fountain Hills AZ School District, Hydrogen-Electric Hybrid vehicle which has been entered in the Automotive X-Prize. This platform will show that AFVTech is highly interested in taking these alternative fuel's in a different direction. With our up and coming 1932 Ford Street Rod, which can be refueled at home, we see the fun and advancement that can be gained from projects such as these, states Kevin Fern (President AFVTech Inc.) "If we can show that performance and fun to drive can be had with alternatives, it only makes acceptance of the alternatives that much more enticing" We love to work with School Districts and Educational facilities to promote and advance alternative fuel technologies, seeing young minds at work, not being confined to the " the status quot" is very rewarding for me!!!!
