The TriHy is a unique vehicle that gets 40 Miles per Gallon on used cooking oil, biodiesel, vegetable oil, jet fuel, or home heating oil. Visitors will answer pop quiz questions for a chance to ride in the TriHy with engineer Max Hall, who designed and built this licensed triple hybrid vehicle.

The Discovery Museums have partnered with the Progressive Insurance Automotive X Prize National Education Program to host Meet the TriHy. The one-day event will include interactive activities such as a model-car design challenge, Making the Wheels Turn, a hands-on energy and motion exhibit, and Green Designs with Solar in Mind, where visitors can discover the power of the Sun as they experiment with small solar race cars.
