The FCEV features an aerodynamic body and sweeping character lines, previewing the potential styling direction of Honda's next-generation fuel-cell model expected in the U.S. and Japan next year.

The FCEV is the first fuel cell vehicle which has its powertrain packaged into the engine bay. This layout leaves the cabin fully usable for passengers and luggage. The fuel-cell stack on the FCEV can put out 100kW with a power density of 3kW/L. Compared to the FCX Clarity, the fuel cell stack size is down by 33 percent.
