    I went to the LA Auto Show yesterday and discovered a beautiful concept vehicle from Honda. It's there next generation fuel cell vehicle that is predicted to be available in 2009/2010.

    I was shocked to see that it had similarities to the Prius. If you look at this concept vehicle, you can almost see a glimpse of the Toyota Prius. I thought how this may possibly look like the next generation Prius!

    Enjoy,

    I think it looks like a wild cross between a Prius and a Lamborghini Murciélago. LOL

    I really dig it though.

    Just make sure and stop drolling so violently that the camera shakes when you take the pics next time. :)

    You can see where the new CR-V got its nose.

    The rear might appear in the next Accord or NSX.

    Frankly, I like the look of this vehicle. Honda said they'll build a few in 2008. Not sure if it's for fleet or personal use.

    The front looks kinda like the Toyota Hybrid minivan in Japan. The Aptiva?

    Nice looking auto. Finally saw "who killed the electric car" last night, which BTW is a good movie, they were ripping on fuel cell cars. They show this scene where Bush is @ a press event fueling up a prototye and he asked the presenter ," How many miles can you go?" The presenter response was 100 - 125 miles and Bush just said "interesting.." All of the costs involved in making H was extreme. I'm sure this will be managed but the electric sure seems more reasonable.
