Honda FCX Fuel Cell Car

Juniper Foo | Aug 02, 2004

In Minority Report, Tom Cruise zips through the streets of Washington D.C. in an ultra-sleek, cherry-red Lexus electric sports car. While that's way cool (the Lexus, not Cruise), the car of tomorrow is more likely to be hydrogen-powered than battery-operated. With a fleet of Honda FCX fuel-cell prototypes soon to hit US roads, the Holy Grail of emission-free technology is now within grasp. The race is on for other auto companies to rev up their own production of hydrogen cars, though it'll be another 10 years before this part of Asia will get to test drive one.
