Honda leases first FCX Clarity Fuel Cell Vehicle to Ministry of the Environment in Japan
Honda began leasing the FCX Clarity fuel cell vehicle in Japan, delivering the first vehicle to the Ministry of the Environment. This transaction follows directly upon a completed lease to the Ministry of the FCX fuel cell vehicle, predecessor to the FCX Clarity. Designed as a dedicated fuel cell vehicle, the FCX Clarity is powered by the Honda V Flow fuel cell stack. Thanks to the innovative layout of the fuel cell power plant, the FCX Clarity offers superior design, packaging and driving performance. Emitting no CO2 in operation, the FCX Clarity offers not only the ultimate in environmental responsibility but also real-world performance and appeal.
Initially, Honda plans to lease the FCX Clarity in Japan only to governmental agencies and certain corporate entities. The combined sales plan for Japan and U.S. calls for about 200 units within three years
