Looks like one to lease at £300 a month (mind you, that's over there - probably be 50% more here!).

The California leases are HEAVILY subsidised by Honda.

Yeah but I read somewhere the new ones will be subsidised by Honda if you agree to be a test subject..... anyways I think they look cool, and if it sves me spending 1.20 a litre then I'll be happy.

Same here, I'll have one please

I wonder if this car prompted the Saudi's to be worried about future demand for oil ?

With zero emmisions this has got to be the future considering full electric just hasn't got the oomph or the range.

Now watch the oil companies try and sabbotage the technology.

How do they make Hydrogen these days? When I was at school you electrolysed water to get Hydrogen & Oxygen. So it would only be zero net emissions if you used windpower or something to provide the electricity
