a. The department retains the title to the vehicle.
b. The vehicle is used for continuing research.
c. If the vehicle is sold or when the research related to the vehicle is completed, the proceeds of the sale of the vehicle shall be used for additional research.

The purposes of the consortium may include, but are not limited to, coordinating the research, production, and marketing of alternative fuels within the participating states.
