Boy, Honda's Not Giving Up This Whole Hydrogen Car Thing

• Wired

On Tuesday, the Japanese automaker unveiled the production version of its Clarity Fuel Cell sedan, which it will begin leasing to customers in Japan in March. It's a handsome enough car, vaguely futuristic, with a hint of Tesla's Model S.

But the styling is almost beside the point; the entire point of this car—an idea Honda's been kicking around for nearly three decades—is the hydrogen fuel cell, about the size of a V6 engine and stuffed under the hood, that keeps it going. That stack of cells will produce about 175 horsepower, and sent the car more than 300 miles between refueling stops.

Automakers, especially Japanese and German automakers, love fuel cells. There's a lot to love about them.
