Honda will deliver fewer than 100 of its new hydrogen fuel-cell cars next year in the U.S., its CEO said last week.
Currently, two 2007 FCX sedans are in the hands of individuals in the U.S., and 20 more are in fleet service. Honda says most of the 2008 FCX models will go to individuals. The cars, which costs hundreds of thousands of dollars each to produce, will be leased.
Honda has shrunk the size of the fuel cell and associated hardware, allowing the 2008 model to be sleek, instead of the boxy, upright 2007 FCX.
Fuel-cell cars use hydrogen gas in an electro-chemical reaction to power electric motors. Water vapor is the exhaust.
