Honda has proposed a new technology to improve hybrid cars. Honda company has developed a very interesting technology to improve hybrid cars. Currently, hybrid vehicles use auxiliary electric motor and regenerative braking system, which enables to convert part of the car kinetic energy in electricity during braking, rather than in the heat as in case with conventional brakes.
Honda found another source of energy that can be used to produce electricity instead of the useless heat dissipation into the environment. It's exhaust with a high temperature. Honda offered to use this energy by putting compact steam electric generator under the hood.
According to the Honda hybrid vehicles should serve as a bridge to the future of cars on hydrogen engines, and the possibility of such a move demonstrated in the FCX Clarity (Honda FCX Clarity Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle).
Hybrid and alternative fuel vehicles:
Honda Civic Hybrid
Honda FCX Clarity
Honda Civic GX Natural Gas Vehicle
Honda Insight Hybrid
