Los Angeles 2013: Honda FCEV Concept

by TTAC Staff

Published: November 21st, 2013

Honda’s successor to the FCX Clarity isn’t set to arrive on our shores until 2015, but those in LA bore witness to what its successor would look like through the eyes of the FCEV Concept.

The FCEV can ferry up to five passengers due to the totatlity of the drivetrain stored within what Honda calls “the engine room.”

As for power, hydrogen is used to create the electricity needed to drive the wheels forward. The automaker has improved this process since the FCX, managing 3 kW per liter of hydrogen consumed.

Honda expects the FCX’s successor to have a range of 300 miles, with only three minutes spent at the pump.

My wife indulges me with my TTAC habit. She leaned over my shoulder and said that this concept reminds her of a folded and rolled dinner napkin.

1. No, this isn't what it will look like 2. Why not just scan the brochure and post that? 3. Where's the engine room? 4. Electricity may eventually twist the wheels, but it's the road that drives them forward. 7. I must be in a bad mood.

Doc423 It's a flat turn, not banked, which makes it more difficult to negotiate, especially if you're travelling a little too fast.
Jeff “So, the majority of our products are either ICE vehicles or intended to utilize those multi-energy platforms that we have. This is a great opportunity for us, compared to our peers, having the multi-energy platforms for all of our products in development and having the agility to move between them,” she said. From what is stated about the next generation Charger it will be released as a 2 door EV and then as a 4 door with the Hurricane turbo straight 6. I assume both the 2 door and 4 door is on the same platform.
