The manifestation of “horsepower” in a vehicle, is expressed through the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell. Plugging in immense strength and reliability, all while being eco-conscious and sustainable positions Japan ahead of many countries with mobility. Packaged as an aesthetically pleasing exterior with a powerful technology feature, the vehicle is one many will find dependency in. Here lies the advantages of a hydrogen powered fuel cell and the specs of the machine. All to know about the radically focused vehicle.
Hydrogen-powered fuel cell: how it functions
Gaining brownie points from the environment, the emission of harmful gas doesn’t come packaged with a hydrogen-powered fuel cell. Getting things started, hydrogen enters the fuel cell then gets separated into protons and electrons though a catalyst. The protons pass through the electrolyte membrane and the electrons pass a circuit thus generating electricity.
Technological features of the Clarity Fuel Cell
Making use of the hydrogen-powered fuel cell is the 2021 Honda Clarity Fuel Cell which is an electric vehicle with the horsepower of 174 kilowatts @ 4501-9028 and a torque of 221 lb-ft @ 0-3500 rpm. Honda’s signature touch was the insertion of a fuel-cell powertrain that is small enough to fit under the hood of the vehicle. The hydrogen fuel cell system utilizes a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell to create the power to move.
This power and the storage battery fuels an electric motor to drive the front wheels. The battery is a lithium-ion battery that keeps energy from regenerative banking and enhances the efficiency of the vehicle. Other features enhancing the efficiency include the EPA Drive Range which is 360 miles per hydrogen fill-up, the Miles-Per Gallon Equivalent and the Hydrogen Tank System, which keeps the compressed gaseous hydrogen allowing sustainability for the environment.
The Honda Clarity’s sensing features are ones that enhance the driver’s experience, including the Collision Mitigation Braking System, Lane Departure Warning and the Road Departure Mitigation. To enhance the visibility of the driver, there is a multi-angle rearview camera and an Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System to warn pedestrians when the vehicle is moving silently.
The Clarity Fuel Cell’s stylish appearance: interior and exterior
With an impressive efficient power cell, Honda’s invention is coupled with a sleek appearance that is accommodating. Welcomed with comfortable temperature, the remote climate pre-conditioning allows driver to set the temperature before entering vehicle. Regardless of the low temperature of the vehicle, the windows are not affected as there are heated side mirrors improving visibility.
The vehicle comfort extends to having this spacious room for five people who are cushioned up on leather-trimmed seats and a sound-insulated cabin to reduce the noise. Whether one feels cold and the other feels warm, the dual-zone climate control sorts that out for you. Just as sleek and efficient, is the exterior styling with ultra-thin LED headlights enhancing the visibility.
The body line of the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell is one that is elegant with ultra-high strength stell making the car light but strong. Helping the air move smoothly around the car, there is a rear tire cover and rear air curtain duct. The hydrogen fueled beast has a voltage range of 450V -850V with the power output ranging from 100kW to 150kW.
A green focused initiative is one that is always appreciated in this current economy and Japan saw an opportunity to take leadership. The invention of the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell comes packaged with sustainable features such a hydrogen-powered fuel cell emitting water and a sleek exterior sure to attract the “book cover” lovers. Luckily for them, this machine that glitters is also gold with its powerful specifications and exterior and interior features sure to elevate your driving experience.
