HICE is our Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine vehicle. Modifying a regular motor Honda GX35 to work on hydrogen, the students of Los Altos Academy of Engineering have successfully been able to run the motor.

The HICE vehicle was originally inspired by Mr. Keirns for the Shell Eco-marathon. Students have then discovered a viable fuel injector to be used from Dr. Bleckham from Cal-State LA. The students have been able to run the motor and start HICE at the second Shell Eco-marathon, of the year 2008. HICE's body originally belonged to High Voltage, but it was temporarily converted.

On the 25th of October, the composites team successfully infused a new body for the HICE vehicle.
