Pininfarina Unveils Sintesi Concept Car Featuring Nuvera’s Quadrivium Drive at Geneva Motor Show

March 4, 2008

GENEVA, March 4 /PRNewswire/ — Pininfarina unveiled its innovative
concept car, the Sintesi, featuring Nuvera’s Quadrivium(TM) drive, at the
Geneva Motor Show today in Geneva, Switzerland.

The Sintesi is powered by Nuvera’s Quadrivium drive, which incorporates
world-leading hydrogen generation technology with state-of-the-art fuel
cells in four distributed wheel power modules. This diversion from
traditional drive trains gave Pininfarina the freedom to design the car
with the passenger in mind rather than the engine, resulting in a highly
stylized car of the future.

“It has been a great pleasure for Pininfarina to work with Nuvera on
the Sintesi project,” commented Andrea Pininfarina, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of Pininfarina. “We hope that this collaboration can be
repeated in the future.”

Quadrivium drive is based on Nuvera’s Andromeda(TM) fuel cell and
STAR(TM) hydrogen generator technologies, which together offer higher
efficiency as compared to an internal combustion engine.

“Nuvera was honored to have been chosen by Pininfarina to work with
them on this cutting edge project,” commented Bill Mitchell, Vice President
of Sales and Marketing. “When faced with the ambitious challenge of making
a high performance power train using ecologically benign technology, Nuvera
engineers changed direction away from conventional technologies and
embraced a radical new fuel cell concept.”
