Suzuki Motors Co., Ltd. has completed development consignment contract for the Cathode Air Blower. Suzuki will use it in the new fuel cell wheelchair, MIO.

There has been a lot of talk recently about fuel cells and their application within the automobile, so it may come as a surprise to learn that Suzuki is applying the technology in the powered wheelchair market as well. The company is one of the largest manufacturers of such products, and its latest model, the MIO, features a fuel cell that uses methanol as the fuel source to generate hydrogen and therefore electricity. The tank holds 4 liters, which is sufficient to provide MIO with a range of approximately 25 miles.

Scroll Giken is pleased to provide its technology to develop one of the world's most environmental friendly products.
