Link:Engadget: Honda's New Eco-Friendly Car
Now this is something that is getting me excited. Finally, a hydrogen fuel cell car that is produced for everyone... well more like only a hundred, but HEY! thats a start. If all goes well, then I hope that the hydrogen fuel cell technology that this over-populated-and-gas-hungry world is waiting for will finally spring to life.

We've been tracking Honda's
FCX fuel-cell hybrid on and off since we first heard about the concept way back in 2004, and it looks like a lucky few will finally be able to get their hands on one soon -- the company unveiled the production version of the car, the FCX Clarity, at the LA Auto Show earlier today. While it's not clear if the zero-emissions whip still sports that hydrogen-fuel-station-finding
GPS system, you'll still be able to get the "gasoline-equivalent" mileage of 68mpg combined city / highway -- but you'll have to extra-special to do it, since Honda is only leasing around 100 of the vehicles to buyers who live near one of its three hydrogen fuel stations in southern California. The rest of us will just have to struggle along with our super
eco-friendly Hummer limos, we suppose.
