Honda FCX Clarity

Honda fuel cell LA Show star

Japanese giant launches the world's first production fuel cell powered car

FCX

14th November 2007

These are the first images of Honda's stunning hydrogen-powered motor. Called the FCX Clarity, it is the first production car to feature a fuel cell powertrain.

Underneath the rakish exterior is a hi-tech powerplant that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity. This then powers a motor placed between the front wheels. Unlike traditional petrol or diesel vehicles, the newcomer's only exhaust emission is harmless water vapour.

By also utilising a lithium ion-battery pack and regenerative braking, the Clarity can achieve a fuel-sipping 65mpg. That's good enough for a range of about 270 miles.

Only available as part of a lease scheme, the first examples will be with US customers late next year.
