shit people would think "fuck this car cuz if its not a Camaro it's not a car, and I dont care if it's economical. The less economical the more horsepower and the better. Cuz I'm an American chevy lover and I hate economical Japanese imports and I only choose supercharged V8". We need this car if we wanna breathe! k maybe I was too biased.
considering that you can burn hydrogen, i think it would be much better to tune the engine to burn the hydrogen instead of it going to electricity. it would also mean that if you cant reach a hydrogen pump you can fill up with regular.
The current moratorium on Alt-Fuel vehicle sales is to 2015. The Petroleum industry wants to extend the moratorium to 2025. Join Hydrogen Cars Now group in Facebook to campaign for the Sale of Hydrogen vehicles today.
Once we get Automakers to sell them, we can acquire h2 home refuelers, both Solar and Natural Gas driven.
It is up to us the consumers to demand products. If we Dont buy they wont produce... think twice on what you are supporting before you spend your hard earn money. Lets help the movement rather than investing in dead end technology (oil).
accident and BOOOM...hydrogen very explosiv...why not sell??? like EV1 and Rav EV is only for leasing...to bad ...in 1 or 2 years is out...arni0202 is right...
This is the future.... But not the foreseeable future. Ever seen Who Killed the Electric Car?
Our government is not going to allow this tech to creep into mainstream until the last drop of oil is sucked from the earth. Greed/Corporations/Capitalism/USA
Well, you're right in that respect. As long as there is any petroleum or coal left in the ground, the earth will have to deal with the pollutants we generate from using it... cause people will never give that stuff up... but, it will run out eventually, which will force them to do something. Course, the world might drop into total chaos when the pumps stop bringing up oil suddenly, with nobody having made enough effort to switch away from it. But we'll see how it all works out eventually.
Honda has developed the next generation of solar hydrogen station
Honda developed the next generation of solar hydrogen station Honda 28, developed a next generation hydrogen station using solar power for homes, announced that it has begun field trials in the United States.
I know what you mean, but I doubt this car will go big in the US for a long time. The goverment knows that if you release the genious of this Japanese car into American streets, Ford, Christler, and Chevy are fucked.
@MrRey904 your are naive ppl! Everyone understands that! Even arab sheikhs who shit in gold toilets bought on oil money. BUT since we have corrupted goverments, we will never see electic cars on our roads
This is stupid... We are using more fossil fuel to create hydrogen, and for what?? for hydrogen to cost the same as gasoline? The environment isn't being saved by this, and neither is your pocket book. The first electric car was created over 100 years ago, why not perfect THAT technology??? SHEESH
Response to wpederson1. Wrong! Next week I will be meeting someone who has a fully commercial and available as well as affordable way to produce hydrogen on demand with zero emissions! Yes, it is 100% off the grid...you can power your house and your car...fully. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX...THEN SPEAK.
Or methane cars. A great natural source of methane is a cow's digestive system. Imagine field after field of cows with "selective diaper/balloon" contraptions attached to the posterior portion of the cow's person. Heck, why stop at cows? Pigs, rats snakes and people all fart too. We could attach a similar device to some mouths and in those cases realize a forty to fifty fold output of waste gas production. Depending on how many pigs, snakes and rats there are that talk too much, of course.
2015? pfff THAT is pathetic and not Japanese at all! (always on time, reliable and fast) way too slow, why 2015? why's it gonna take so long and what do you think about this?
what's taking them so long to allow the rest of the world to by these? just build those H20 fuel stations in most busy places... have Japan even had em yet? Honda being a mainly Japanese company and really good for technology =/
if hondas a gambler, (assuming hydrogen stations are nationwide) itll sell these cars for a real low price, take the revenue hit for a year or 2 but itll own the market for the rest of time if the fcx takes off. im a muscle guy but ill go with this
which would you guys think is better, a lexusis 250 with about 209 bhp or the v6 honda acorrd coupe, please consider which would be better for the long run and which offers more for less. Thank you so much. Please reply.

you don't get it when you take electricity to make hydrogen then turn it back into electricity that will cost more than just putting the electricity in the car in the first place
Whether it costs more or not a pure electric car cannot be refueled quickly and if hydrogen fueling systems become the norm then electric won't be able to cope with longer commutes or road trips whereas the hydrogen cars will.
Retard... the whole point of this is to find alternatives to gasoline! Because Hello! The world is going to run out of the natural gases sooner or later! (Estimated around 2040-2050)... So we better start developing something... before the gas is already gone and the world is thrown into whack. Thank You Japanese Engineering!
i'm not really too informed about alternative fuels but just in my opinion i would prefer a combustion engine which runs on hydrogen. i no hydrogen is flamable, so if someone could create an engine to which the hydrogen is injected into the cylindar as petrol is and then ignighted which moves the piston etc i would prefer it more, i like driving stick lol i'm a huge fan of hydrogen and think that everybody should begin to adopt it, either as fuel cell like this or my crazy combustion engine lol
A hydrogen combustion engine is certainly possible, and has been done before by BMW, etc., but it comes with certain caveats. Hydrogen has a lower energy density than gasoline, so you would need much more hydrogen to get the same efficiency. Also, combustion of hydrogen combined with oxygen from the air can produce nitrous oxides and smog, so this is not a viable long-term option to gasoline's pollution. For this reason, fuel cells avoid this problem and are seen as the way to the future.
Wow, beautiful design..can hardly tell it's something "special" under the hood! Honda's got style in its recent models. Nice! Hope i'll get to drive one of these soon (and afford one too if i'm lucky!) I think this is what the future of automobile should be like..sexy cars with no toxic emission!
The future should be electric, hydrogen fuel cell and leastly bio fuels. I like the FCX but I do not see why it has to look unappealing. There are many ways to design a car. Interior is futuristic, clean and sharp with easy blue lighting. Parts of the interior of the FCX is made corn oil instead of petroleum.
I guess that's your opinion. Haha. There are so many cars, you will find one suuits u but not this one. But I realy hope to have this. Dont take it too seriously, unless you can make it. Life is full of trade-off. Lol..
What is real? A bright face leading favortism and more feeling. Clean when met dirty may follow. Dirty when met clean more likeness of following. Solid when met cheap may laugh. Blue Led light when met amber light will want bright led light. A 12 year old likes to eat peaches more than apples.
I'm sure if Honda wanted to exchange a little top speed or range, for extra acceleration, they could have. Just like any ordinary engine. The car does not "suck ass", as you put it. It matches athe performance of an ordinary family car, and is a major breakthrough. Better will almost certainly come in the near future. Please try to be intelligent enough to realise that.
Why do you suppose Honda has not engaged in the home hydrogen gas process that would allow owners to make their own Hydrogent Gas alla Mike Strizki? Just wondering why wouldn't they think going in that directions wouldn't make them the market leader in a hurry.
the Honda FCX Clarity is a publicity stunt. if it wasn't you'd have to buy it. the car makers are very secretive about how much it is costing to build just one of theses cars. on average the cost is a cool million. this car suks ass.
Hmmm Hydrogen Fuel Cells or Natural Gas Vehicles...It'll be interesting to see which fuel source ends up being the victor in the battle...though both types of cars are available by honda (Honda FCX Clarity and Honda Civic NGV).
no it just has drive neutral and reverse. It has enough torque that it doesn't need a lot of gears so it only has one moving engine part..extremly reliable and an amazing technological achievement!
Lack of Oil company support means lack of Hydrogen fueling station. Hence it's only available for Lease in california. And cost of one of these thing are $94000USD. It will just takes time for the cost to drop. Much like the once amazing DVD player used to be $1000USD now can be have for $45USD at your local Walmart.
It will come soon though. We sent man on the moon. Almost an impossible task. This not really rocket science. With Obama in there and made his priority for oil for independence, it will come sooner than you expected. Goodbye Middle Eastern oil and Venezuelas Chavez. You could turn off your oil pipeline spigot. We will not need it!!! Fuckers!!!!
Check out the Mike Strizki videos on this site. He has a car that works on Hydrogent and has had it for years. He also has a way for each of us to get hydrogen gas from Solar sources which also purify water. Hope to hear how you liked the vids.
To run a hho cell you need electricity! This car turn Hydrogen into Electricity to run a Electric Motor ? (electric vehicle) .This is not a combustion Engine (no pistons)..
And not to mention that the only thing that comes out of the tailpipes is pure water. It's quiet, and has 136hp give u a range of 650km driving. Pure energy efficent and 0 emission.
$600/month lease...just like the movie "Who killed the electric car". Car companies won't sell them because they are afraid people will upgrade or modify it to be more efficient. And that was why they are on lease so they can take it back.
no its on lease cause in 4 years there will prob be an even better safer way to store hydrogen so honda is basically making sure you're not screwed when the next gen comes out...
Yeah i've made three(dry hho cell).The Question is: How Do You Turn Hydrogen in Electricity ??.Because the Honda has a Electric Motor (Warp9 Motor)......
Sorry, not trying to be rude but I realy don't get your question. If you have made fuel cells before, then I'm sure you know how it converts H2 into electricity and H2O?
I guess I dont understand what you mean by 'How Do You Turn Hydrogen in Electricity'.. Do you mean, 'How Do You Turn Hydrogen in to Electricity'? or do you mean something else?
In Honda FCX or any fuel cell cars, you store the Hydrogen in H2 absorbing polymer/alloy or a normal Gas tank.
Lol maybe it's me lol.Ok, i use a 12 VDC Battery (car battery) to run my hho dry cell in combination with Fuel (Petrol)to improve combustion.This car has a Electric Motor (EV),a Warp 9 Motor(or similar)it is not a Engine !.So my Question is: how do you turn Hydrogen into Electic to run a electic MOTOR?
Ok, I'm not quite sure what hho dry cell is... Maybe you can explain what it does on your next post? (I wiki'ed it but nothing came up)
well in a fuel cell, you don't need and battery.
What it does is that it has a platinum catalyst which basically splits a Hydrogen (H2) into 2H+ and 2 electrons. where this electron can be used to drive the motor. The electron comes back into the fuel cell to combine H+ and oxygen to produce water. Jope this helps but more on wiki :P
Ok Thanx Solid polymer fuel cells (platinum salt)are anticipated to serve as electric energy supply sources in various fields such as power source for automobiles because they can start and generate electricity at a temperature as low as room temperature.samuraixsamurai Simply Type in hho dry cell into Youtube.And Thanx again....
....... honda has already been running crash tests with the car for years now. im pretty the chances of it exploding won't be anymore then that of gasoline.. which is also flammable and is also residing in the back of your cars ...
This car is really good. Hydrogen is the future, I not intrested in those who think we should stay with petrol, as this technology needs to be developed, released and developed more as the technology advances :). By having greener cars we can have a fuel that won't run out, cleaner air, a better enviroment and help those in worser of countries as well, as they will not have to deal with the full hit of climate change (which includes us as well).
oh that's sensible. Half of Africa is facing starvation, whilst Honda needs to grow fields of corn to make their interior upholstery. Nearly as bad as bio-fuels.
well thats all very nice, but what the hell happens when some drunk trucker slams into the back of you and with sparks flying ruptures your tank of compressed hydrogen. Forget about the LHC Collider, the Honda Clarity might create a second Big Bang!!!
a drunk trucker slamming into the back of you will kill you with or without the hydrogen tank. might as well go through the pearly gates with a bang...
yea, and take out most of the surrounding traffic as well. And if those happen to be carrying compressed hydrogen tanks too in a motorway pile up scenario forexample, well you can just imagine the chain reaction.
I know your all dogooders and want to save the planet(btw the planet is not going anywhere) but your going to have to face it, this particular design is not going to succeed is it.
I NEVER SEEN Honda's gasoline fule vehicle, it explore as fire bumb on accident seen. Again, never. :) However, I seen on other auto maker co. vehicles. and that's a true.
Relax. I don't blaim you because human never experment before, use hydrogen as a fule for the vehicle. Always stick with Gasoline but gamble for when explore on you. Fortunatly, Honda engneers and scientists are know it all. So, kick back and relax. :)
I'd like to buy that and hydrogen production isn't proplem. Just need to make powerfull solar powered hydrogen generators to stations and there is no need to transport hydrogen like diesel or petrol. Then hydrogen would be cheap. That car could be in our country for sale but only stop is our counrty tax. Need to pay hig prizes to use that. So unfair.
Is that a no they didn't change it? And that's pretty quick. This is actually the only Honda car I would probably buy. Too bad they are only selling them in california.
This is an incredible car! My hope is that the world makes a push towards Hydrogen Fuel Cell cars. I think some major cities have fuel cell buses for public transportation. Pretty neat!

thats sad i bet your both grown ass men fighting like 2 year olds im 16 and i even know better now both of you get off each others daddys cock and GROW THE FUCK UP!!!
yeah but it's better than a gasoline powered car though. i mean it may not be perfect but it sure is a big step ahead and it may slowly start to lessesn oil consumption here in america.
You know the best thing for people to do is search and believe in what they think is true. for 100 years people have said oil was good. well now we know its not.
so poeple, search youtube and do it, convert your cars, and then decide what is right for you. the world will never let you have free energy. if you want it for free you have to convert your house to run on solar and wind, and your car to run on something other than bought fuel. then you will be free in a few years time.
and compare that to using electricity to make it at home or anywhere you are, you can use radio frequency to make it as well. ITS 100 TIMES MORE EFFICIENT. so these crazies need to stop promoting oil. and honda needs to make a home generator. OR you should buy one from china yourself.
you can make hydrogen from free sources, wind , solar, wave. then its free, you can make it from electricity using low amounts of electricity using the meyers method, search for it on youtube. and hydrogen is 3 times more powerful than oil. now think of all the energy spent finding, taking it out , and transporting it and then protecting the oil countries.
meyers was a scam artist. Your just trying to get commission from those STUPID HHO kits
You can never get back the full amount of energy you put into anything. Thats thermal dynamics. Claiming some schmuck in his garage has done what scientist have been trying to do for the past 100 years is a joke.
Yes you can use wind to or solar to make hydrogen gas but a much better use would use that wind or or solar to charge a EV. Youll get get back over 60% of the energy earth gave you
The range is directly related to the size of its battery. They have technology to recharge a battery in a matter of minutes i could see a future where instead of gas stations we have charging stations. Modern batteries they can take as many amps as you can dump into them.
umm.. no it's not. hydrogen is the most abundant element in outer space!! and i don't think that aliens in outer space burn crude oil to develop the hydrogen. so i think you should get your facts straight!
you are the alien here,on earth hydrogen isn't found in its purest form,it's always combined with another thing like water h20 or crude or methan CH4.We are on earth and not in outer space so think a little bit before talking crap.
So you should learn chemistry to understand before you criticize.
Learn chemistry? I did 'learn chemistry' as it is a subject that i enjoy. the methods that you name are not i repeat are not the only ways of achieving hydrogen! but if YOU want to be ignorant about it just as all of the U.S. has been ignorant about this war then YOU go ahead dunbass!!!!!
wow ok... yeah you're really mature! you're ignorant just like the rest of the people in america!! which is why the euro is worth more because in europe there aren't as many ignorant turds such ass you! you get mad becuase i simply did not explain another way to attain hydrogen? just like a child! that doesn't get his fucking little bottle in time! go suck your moms tit you immature childish fool!

The future should be electric, hydrogen fuel cell and leastly bio fuels. I like the FCX but I do not see why it has to look unappealing. There are many ways to design a car. Interior is futuristic, clean and sharp with easy blue lighting. Parts of the interior of the FCX is made corn oil instead of petroleum.

How does it look appealing to you?
tnguyen318 2 years ago
How does it doesnt look appealing to you? IMHO, it's aedynamically designed. I like the front silver plate since so far, no other car has it.
pdm172 2 years ago
The shape is awkward, not easy to the mind. In sum, cars of the past look awkward. Front is flat and pointy, back is bigger and shorter.
tnguyen318 2 years ago
I guess that's your opinion. Haha. There are so many cars, you will find one suuits u but not this one. But I realy hope to have this. Dont take it too seriously, unless you can make it. Life is full of trade-off. Lol..

I'm sure if Honda wanted to exchange a little top speed or range, for extra acceleration, they could have. Just like any ordinary engine. The car does not "suck ass", as you put it. It matches athe performance of an ordinary family car, and is a major breakthrough. Better will almost certainly come in the near future. Please try to be intelligent enough to realise that.

Why do you suppose Honda has not engaged in the home hydrogen gas process that would allow owners to make their own Hydrogent Gas alla Mike Strizki? Just wondering why wouldn't they think going in that directions wouldn't make them the market leader in a hurry.

Lack of Oil company support means lack of Hydrogen fueling station. Hence it's only available for Lease in california. And cost of one of these thing are $94000USD. It will just takes time for the cost to drop. Much like the once amazing DVD player used to be $1000USD now can be have for $45USD at your local Walmart.

It will come soon though. We sent man on the moon. Almost an impossible task. This not really rocket science.

Yeah i've made three(dry hho cell).The Question is: How Do You Turn Hydrogen in Electricity ??.Because the Honda has a Electric Motor (Warp9 Motor)......
freedombiteback 3 years ago
Sorry, not trying to be rude but I realy don't get your question. If you have made fuel cells before, then I'm sure you know how it converts H2 into electricity and H2O?
I guess I dont understand what you mean by 'How Do You Turn Hydrogen in Electricity'.. Do you mean, 'How Do You Turn Hydrogen in to Electricity'? or do you mean something else?
In Honda FCX or any fuel cell cars, you store the Hydrogen in H2 absorbing polymer/alloy or a normal Gas tank.
samuraixsamurai 3 years ago
Lol maybe it's me lol.Ok, i use a 12 VDC Battery (car battery) to run my hho dry cell in combination with Fuel (Petrol)to improve combustion.This car has a Electric Motor (EV),a Warp 9 Motor(or similar)it is not a Engine !.So my Question is: how do you turn Hydrogen into Electic to run a electic MOTOR?
freedombiteback 3 years ago
Ok, I'm not quite sure what hho dry cell is... Maybe you can explain what it does on your next post? (I wiki'ed it but nothing came up)
well in a fuel cell, you don't need and battery.
What it does is that it has a platinum catalyst which basically splits a Hydrogen (H2) into 2H+ and 2 electrons. where this electron can be used to drive the motor. The electron comes back into the fuel cell to combine H+ and oxygen to produce water. Jope this helps but more on wiki :P
samuraixsamurai 3 years ago
Ok Thanx Solid polymer fuel cells (platinum salt)are anticipated to serve as electric energy supply sources in various fields such as power source for automobiles because they can start and generate electricity at a temperature as low as room temperature.samuraixsamurai Simply Type in hho dry cell into Youtube.And Thanx again....

This car is really good. Hydrogen is the future, I not intrested in those who think we should stay with petrol, as this technology needs to be developed, released and developed more as the technology advances :). By having greener cars we can have a fuel that won't run out, cleaner air, a better enviroment and help those in worser of countries as well, as they will not have to deal with the full hit of climate change (which includes us as well).

I've heard that hydrogen power can be about 26 times that of petrol, which would explain the big bang...

You know the best thing for people to do is search and believe in what they think is true. for 100 years people have said oil was good. well now we know its not.
so poeple, search youtube and do it, convert your cars, and then decide what is right for you. the world will never let you have free energy. if you want it for free you have to convert your house to run on solar and wind, and your car to run on something other than bought fuel. then you will be free in a few years time.
307890 3 years ago
and compare that to using electricity to make it at home or anywhere you are, you can use radio frequency to make it as well. ITS 100 TIMES MORE EFFICIENT. so these crazies need to stop promoting oil. and honda needs to make a home generator. OR you should buy one from china yourself.
307890 3 years ago
you can make hydrogen from free sources, wind , solar, wave. then its free, you can make it from electricity using low amounts of electricity using the meyers method, search for it on youtube. and hydrogen is 3 times more powerful than oil. now think of all the energy spent finding, taking it out , and transporting it and then protecting the oil countries.
307890 3 years ago
meyers was a scam artist. Your just trying to get commission from those STUPID HHO kits
You can never get back the full amount of energy you put into anything. Thats thermal dynamics. Claiming some schmuck in his garage has done what scientist have been trying to do for the past 100 years is a joke.
Yes you can use wind to or solar to make hydrogen gas but a much better use would use that wind or or solar to charge a EV. Youll get get back over 60% of the energy earth gave you

The range is directly related to the size of its battery. They have technology to recharge a battery in a matter of minutes i could see a future where instead of gas stations we have charging stations. Modern batteries they can take as many amps as you can dump into them.
