Summary: "Honda tangled out two deeper supposition cars at the LA Auto Show yesterday -- a sports car that looks blue streak for the runway and a hybrid fuel cell vehicle. The pennies sports car looks revel in a diminutive jet fighter and features a 4-cylinder engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. Nice eye candy for now, but it could be the shape of real things to come.
Even additional interesting, Honda has hybridized its FCX fuel cell usage and plans to cash out a bounteous application makeup in 2008. The other FCX features and redesigned fuel cell stack and drive train that are is much lighter and 40 percent smaller than the previous model. The 127 horsepower vehicle uses a natural Bio-Fabric for the interior (yeah less plastics!), and replaces mechanical parts with a Shift By Wire transmission."
The FCX looks flip over a Prius on steroids. It's supposed to undertake have fun one, too, with largely worthier
fuel economy and further power. Questions remain, though, about the availability and concern of hydrogen as an energy storage medium. This story sparked a lively debate about the relative merits of plug-in hybrid technology (available now) versus hydrogen and fuel cell technology. What do you think?
