FCX Clarity fuel cell vehicle official car for 2008 Indy Japan

Its official the Honda Clarity fuel cell vehicle will be the official car for the 2008 Indy Japan race. The event is known as the Bridgestone Indy Japan 300 mile race and it will be held in Twin Ring Motegi in Tochigi, Japan, April 17 - 19.

Personally I think that the FCX Clarity is the perfect vehicle for this Indy event. My reason is since 2007 IRL IndyCar has used ethanol fuel which is pretty close to being 100% environmentally safe. So it does not surprise me that Indy would pick a car that is definitely environmentally friendly.

The Honda FCX Clarity runs on 100% hydrogen and the only byproduct is water so the impact to the environment is negligible. It is powered by powerful Honda V Flow fuel cell stack. So there is no power shortage that one might expect from a hydrogen car.

Among being the official car of the Bridgestone Indy Japan 300 race the Honda FCX Clarity will be the "pace car" at the start of the race.
