The Concept Car
At many of the motor shows around the world, many manufactures use it as an opportunity to display their concept cars. A concept car or show vehicle is a car prototype which is designed to showcase a new style or technology. Often these cars never make it outside of the showroom or the motor show but recently Honda’s concept car, the Honda FCX Clarity, has been put into production. This is a hydrogen fuel cell car, which is based on the 2006 Honda FCX Concept. The FCX Clarity car has been dubbed the car of the further, as it he demonstrates electric car qualities such as zero emissions while offering 5 minute refuelling times. The FCX Clarity is currently only available in Southern California, where “fast-fill” hydrogen stations are available, however Honda believes that it could start mass producing this vehicle by 2018.
