改进的悍马H1与另一辆类似悍马H1的车将一起使用6到10天的时间去南极，露天停留两天后，利用6到10天的时间返回到南极洲。
南极零队用了7年的时间改装这台车。框架、悬架、车轴、轮毂,变速器,车身完全是1998年的悍马，时髦的车身来自于一台隔热的H1救护车，大功率的动力系统来自于一台装甲H1。原来的H1采用一台6.5升的V8，但是这里的ICE发动机被换成了一台3.2升的直列六缸涡轮增压柴油机，它来自于两台30加仑的采用航空级别生物质燃料的坦克。
串行混合动力车被称为混合极地导线汽车，使用电动马达输出一个216的马力,并储存在一个24kWh的电池中，该电池在一个绝缘的5英尺长的车身围栏中间的电池箱中。这个电池分别为每个轴上的200马力的电动马达提供动力,这样改装是为了使旅行可以通过南极的12月暗光。
我们不能确定第二辆车是基于什么,但其内部非常类似悍马,它们有同样的规格,除了涂成橙色，其他的看起来几乎相同,。他们把改装后的气流拖车称为“Snowstream”,并计划拍成电视剧或以一个记录片的形式来记录这次探险。
Zero South Has Been Planning This Trip For At Least Seven Years
One modified Hummer H1, traveling with another vehicle that looks like a modified Hummer H1, will spend six to 10 days driving to the South Pole, two days camping at the Pole, and take another six to 10 days driving back to the coast of Antarctica. Assuming all goes well. That's not guaranteed, since this blue beast really is - fundamentally, at least - a Hummer H1, not just Hummer-like bodywork over non-Hummer internals like you'd find on, say, the Dakar-winning "Mini."
The Zero South team has been working on this vehicle for seven years (we checked it out at SEMA in 2008 and in 2010). The frame, suspension, axles, hubs, differentials, and the body are pure 1998 Hummer, the funky bodywork being from an insulated H1 ambulance, the uprated driveline from an armored H1. The original H1 used a 6.5-liter V8, but here that ICE engine has been swapped for a 3.2-liter Turbodiesel V6 straight-six that will run on aviation-gradebiofuel pulled from two 30-gallon tanks.
Called the Hybrid Polar Traverse (www.tyncar.com/H/hanma/)Vehicles, the serial hybrids use that engine to power a 216-horsepower electric motor that juices up a 24-kWh battery stored in an insulated, five-foot-long battery box between the frame rails. That battery powers two 200-hp electric motors, one at each axle, that will keep the tracks going through the Antarctic December half-light.
We aren't sure what the second vehicle is based on, but its internals mirror the Hummer's, it has the exact same specs, and it looks almost the same except it's painted orange. They will pull a modified Airstream trailer called the "Snowstream," and are planning and eight-episode TV series as well as a feature film to document the expedition. 来源：Autoblog Green
