Honda FC Sport Hints at Hydrogen Performance Future

The buzz with alternative fuel vehicles is all about performance. Sure, a zero-emissions vehicle is great, but if it takes me 10 minutes to get to 60 mph, what’s it worth? The Tesla Roadster has proven that well-designed eco-vehicles will sell—at any price. The Honda FC Sport concept took the hydrogen fuel cell technology already developed for the Honda FCX Clarity and pushed it to sport performance level.
The downside? It’s a concept. We hope Honda doesn’t throw the baby out with the bathwater on this one when it comes to production. The world needs alternative fuel vehicles that don’t look like grandma’s boring, errand-running, stubby sedan.
