Q’orianka Kilcher, Clonlara student and young Hollywood actress, got her first car recently and became the world's youngest fuel cell vehicle customer. The Honda FCX is a pretty cool car for a 17 year old, but it seems only fitting. Q'orianka is not only an award winning actress with high critical acclaim, but also a committed human rights and environmental activist.

She has pursued the performing arts since age 5. Cast at age 14 as Pocahontas in the movie 'The New World,' opposite Colin Farrell and Christian Bale, her performance won her the 2006 Alma Award for best Latin American actress in a feature film and the National Board of Review's best breakthrough performance of 2006.

Q'orianka is the global youth ambassador for Amazon Watch and Amnesty International, a speaker at the United Nations on indigenous issues and the founder of on-Q initiative. She is also currently producing a documentary about the Peruvian Amazon through her own production company, iQ films.
