\"The hydrogen fuel cell electric truck platform developed by General Motors can be adopted by a family of commercial vehicles used for cargo delivery and commercial freight, the automaker said on Friday.\
\
The platform, nicknamed SURUS for Silent Utility Rover Universal Superstructure, uses two electric drive units and GM's Generation 2 hydrogen fuel cell system that is capable of more than 400 miles of range.\
\...\
"SURUS redefines fuel cell electric technology for both highway and off-road environments," said Charlie Freese, GM's global head of fuel cell development. "General Motors is committed to bringing new high-performance, zero-emission systems to solve complex challenges for a variety of customers."\
\
GM announced SURUS on Tuesday as part of its plans to introduce 20 all-electric passenger vehicles by 2023. Engineers created the SURUS platform by combining the chassis of two of its heavy-duty pickup trucks. It is driven by two electric motors and features four-wheel steering.\"\
