Honda Hydrogen, Honda fcx

The new zero-emissions FCX Clarity hydrogen vehicle from Honda rolled With the electric-driven Tesla Roadster earning a great deal of respect for its on-road performance and eco-friendly demeanor, Honda has recently unveiled their own stab at an alternative energy vehicle. The sports-minded FC Sport car is powered by hydrogen with a high-performance electric powertrain in a three-seater format.

The fuel cell draws on energy synthesized through a chemical reaction between hydrogen gas and oxygen in the air, and a lithium-ion battery pack provides supplemental power. The FCX Clarity has a range of about 270-miles per tank with hydrogen consumption equivalent to 74 miles per gallon, according to the carmaker. It has a top speed of up to 100 miles per hour. Not that anyone should be driving that fast.
