Honda announces plans for FCX hydrogen fuel cell car
10 January 2006 by Hydrogen Power
Honda just anounced it plans to produce the FCX, introduced at the auto shows just a few months ago. Although production is 3 or 4 years off, they seem confident that recent advances in fuel cell technology has made the FCX a viable vehicle. A new absorption material to assist in hydrogen storage is said to allow a 350 mile cruising range.
The FCX is one of the nicest looking hydrogen vehicles the auto manufacturers have shown and the low floor fuel cell platform makes excellent use of space enabling a large passenger cabin.
Honda is also developing the HES or Home Energy Station which produces hydrogen from natural gas for fuel cell vehicles along with heat and electricity for the house. The HES may make cars such as the FCX somewhat more practical due to the complete lack of a hydrogen infrastructure at the present time. No price for the FCX was mentioned.
