Honda Rolls Out Hydrogen Car

I hope they work well. Then, maybe, just maybe, the freaking moonbat Global Warming idiots will shut up.

From the BBC:

Japanese car manufacturer Honda has begun the first commercial production of a zero-emission, hydrogen fuel-cell powered vehicle. The four-seater, called FCX Clarity, runs on hydrogen and electricity, emitting only water vapour. Honda claims the vehicle offers three times better fuel efficiency than a traditional, petrol-powered car. Honda plans to produce 200 of the cars, which are initially available only to lease, over the next three years. One of the biggest obstacles standing in the way of wider adoption of fuel-cell vehicles is the lack of hydrogen fuelling stations.

The car will initially be available for lease in California starting in July, and then in Japan later this year. It is being built on the world's first dedicated production line for fuel-cell vehicles in Japan. "This is an important day in the history of fuel-cell vehicle technology and a monumental step closer to the day when fuel-cell cars will be part of the mainstream," said John Mendel, executive vice president of American Honda.

Honda says it expects to lease a few dozen units in the US and Japan in 2008, and about 200 units within three years.

  1. "...emitting only water vapour."

    So, we're exchanging one greenhouse gas for another?

    Yay, us!

    Just wait until the envirowackos find out the truth about water vapor.
