Yep. > The FCX Clarity is capable of traveling about 270 miles before refueling,\* a reasonable distance for most people. When you do need fuel, it’s easy and safe to do at one of the designated hydrogen refueling stations in your area. The fill-up only takes a few minutes. [http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/refueling.aspx](http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/refueling.aspx) I don’t know off hand, but the hydrogen was probably created with electricity which would have been created at a power plant, possibly a coal power plant. So in reality it still runs of fossil fuels, but it’s far enough removed that they can market it as “clean.” Goofy huh?
