FCX Clarity Honda Newest Fuel Cell Vehicle Running On Hydrogen As The Inexhaustible Fuel Introduce


Monday, June 16, 2008 has witnessed the introduction of Honda’s newest fuel- cell car known by the name FCX Clarity in Tochigi situated north of Tokyo. The specialty with FCX Clarity or with any fuel- cell vehicle is that these cars do not lead to environmental pollution because these cars are not run by fossil fuels and these cars do not produce carbon dioxide.

FCX Clarity is a sporty looking salon which is likely to be admired and purchased by trendy people who are also concerned about the environment- just like today’s educated youth. According to Takeo Fukui, Honda’s CEO, both style and environmental consciousness should act as the factors that would lead to the popularity of this new entrant.

The sales are supposed to trigger off from autumn in Japan while from July onwards; these cars would be in the reach of American consumers through the newly- established dealer network of fuel- cell vehicles. The sales prediction or expectation of Honda for their new fuel- cell vehicle is 200 units for the first three years, taking into account both US and Japan.

In fact, the fuel- cell vehicle industry has a bright prospect and these can conveniently replace the use of conventional cars that run on exhaustible and expensive fuel. The fuel required to run the fuel- cell cars is Hydrogen that are comparatively cheaper, has no harmful emission effects and this source is inexhaustible. And yes! You don’t have to be concerned about the driving performance! It would be as fine as the conventional cars.

But these environment- friendly cars are likely to face obstacles in its way of propagation because of scarcity of fuelling stations and the high development costs. Japan’s fuel’s efficiency test has revealed that a single fuelling can make the car cover a distance of 385 miles and that it can achieve a maximum speed of 99 miles per hour. It is worthy to mention that Honda’s strong competitor in this specific industry has been Toyota Motor Corp as both these companies made the first moves to put fuel- cell vehicles on the road in December, 2002.

Honda’s recent move has been well matched by Toyota which has claimed this month to have developed a fuel- cell vehicle that can cover up to 830 km by consuming only a single tank of Hydrogen. Let’s see how mass- commercialization plays a part in determining the winner among these two players! hydrogen fuel cell
