Honda to Produce Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles in U.S.
MARYSVILLE, OH—Honda Motor Co. plans to assemble a hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) at its factory here starting in 2024. The new vehicle, based on the CR-V, will be produced at the Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC).
The new CR-V-based FCEV also will mark North America’s first production vehicle to combine a plug-in feature with FCEV technology in one model, which enables the driver to charge the onboard battery to deliver EV driving around town with the flexibility of fast hydrogen refueling for longer trips.
