The site’s simple, compelling visual design is supported by a host of easy-to-access features that include a social media hub with a ‘Trending’ bar that keeps users apace of popular topics, a powerful search and filter function, a clever ‘Mile Counter’ that monitors the progress of the Tucson Fuel Cell vehicle, and many other useful innovations throughout the site.
