LA Auto Show: Honda FC Sport Fuel-Cell Design Study

Honda’s new FC Sport Concept for the 2008 LA Auto Show. The FC Sport is a hydrogen-powered, three-seat sports car concept. The design uses the Honda V Flow fuel cell technology which is in the FCX Clarity sedan. The FC Sport has a fuel cell stack which is located between the rears seats while the battery pack is placed low in the middle of the vehicle.

The electric motor lies just forward of the rear axle, and although there are no images of the interior, Honda claims that hte FC Sport features a McLaren F1-style seating layout with a racecar-like centre driving position, and there will be place for passengers on either side.
