Honda makes fuel-cell car

June 16, 2008

Honda's Fuel Cell CarGreat… if you live near a hydrogen fueling station. This is not a soluton for most of us. In fact, 2 of the first 5 people who have ordered the car are MOVIE STARS Jamie Lee Curtis and Christopher Guest! Eternal optimists that they are, where are they going to fuel up?

In a Reuters, UK article today,

Honda kicked off production on Monday of its newest fuel-cell car, as the car-maker gears up for the battle to dominate the market for next-generation vehicles.

Honda’s FCX Clarity, a sporty-looking fuel-cell saloon, came off the production line in Tochigi, north of Tokyo. The assembly line is Honda’s first to be dedicated to building fuel-cell vehicles.

The FCX Clarity will be sold through a newly established fuel-cell vehicle dealership network in the United States from July, Honda said. In Japan, sales are slated to start in autumn.

Supposedly it produces no carbond dioxide, but I can’t wait to see what complaint the environmentalists come up with to oppose this one!
