/Recreational Vehicles News Articles/ - Santa Rosa, CA, September 13, 2008 - Honda has come out with the 2009 Clarity FCX, the world's first vehicle to run on hydrogen fuel-cells. The FCX concept was first unveiled at the 2007 Los Angeles Auto Show. It is currently available only on order/lease with only a limited number released, as consumers are not permitted to buy this model.

Engine
The 2009 Honda FCX Clarity is a four-door four-passenger sedan that runs on fuel obtained through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. The only by-product of this engine is vapor emissions.

This electric motor has power of 127 horsepower, which translates to 134 hp and 189 lb ft of torque on a car with a regular engine. It accelerates to 60 mph in 9.2 seconds, which is almost on par with what the 2008 Honda Accord sedan does on its 177 hp engine.

The 2009 Honda FCX Clarity offers fuel efficiency that translates to 68 to 79 mpg.

Interiors and exteriors
This model's interiors and exteriors are filled up with features such as a limousine-like cabin volume, new lighter lithium ion battery pack, electric steering, a climate control system within the seats to minimize energy use, Honda bio-fabric upholstery, rear camera, floating, layered instrument panel, XM satellite radio, thermo-electrically heated and cooled seats, electronic stability control, adaptive cruise control and a navigation system.

Safety
The 2009 Honda FCX Clarity's safety features include an impact-absorbing interior, six advanced airbags, hydrogen filler inlet with integrated check valve, collision mitigation braking system, traction control system with slide-slip control, vehicle stability assistance, and an electronic brake distribution system. To protect the hydrogen and electrical devices in the car during a collision, an omni-directional crash protection is given.
