Find (and dominate) new roads in the hydrogen-powered Colorado ZH2

Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car fanatic, he started working his way through the echelons of the automotive industry, starting out as social-media director of a small European-focused garage outside of Chicago. From there, he moved to the editorial side, penning several written features in Total 911 Magazine before becoming a full-time auto writer, first for a local Chicago outlet and then for CNET Cars.

It has a Multimatic DSSV suspension setup, which helps it tackle all sorts of gnarly terrain.

After a morning spent thrashing around in this thing, I can confirm that it performs as well as you might think.
