DOE also announced up to $35 million to advance fuel cell and hydrogen technologies, including enabling the early adoption of fuel cell applications, such as light duty fuel cell electric vehicles. DOE has established 55% engine efficiency as a stretch goal for heavy duty engines with a plan to meet this goal by 2020.

A fuel cell car is a full electric vehicle.The development cost must come down and there must be a major expansion of the hydrogen fueling infrastructure. Further, Honda is unique in making long-term investments to develop the refueling infrastructure for alternative fuel vehicles. But make no mistake.
