"You'd think General Motors' Hy-wire -- a fuel-cell concept car -- would rewrite the book on driving, with itsfuturistic fuel and its video-game controls... For starters, there is no traditional steering wheel in this $3.5 million marvel of technology - a feature that, it turns out, will make this test drive unlike any other.What it does have, though, is a hydrogen-fuel system that emits only water and heat, an environmental benefit that many hope will make this baby the car of the future."
