Experts say the industry also has overcome safety and reliability concerns that have hindered distribution in the past.\u003cbr/\u003eBut hydrogen cars still have a glaring downside ďż˝ refueling stations are scarce, and costly to build.\u003cbr/\u003eConsumers can expect costs in line with some luxury models.\u003cbr/\u003eHyundai is offering to pay the hydrogen and maintenance costs. The company will start leasing in the Los Angeles area, where most of the state's nine fueling stations are located. California lawmakers have allocated $100 million to build 100 more. Honda wouldn't reveal any pricing details.\u003cbr/\u003eHydrogen cars, experts say, have an advantage over battery-powered electric cars because drivers don't have to worry about running out of electricity and having to wait hours for recharging.\u003cbr/\u003eHydrogen fuel cells use a complex chemical process to separate electrons and protons in hydrogen gas molecules. The electrons power a car's electric motor, which turns the wheels.\u003cbr/\u003eSince the hydrogen isn't burned, there's no pollution. Instead, oxygen also is pumped into the system, and when it meets the hydrogen ions and electrons, that creates water and heat. The only byproduct is water. \u003cbr/\u003eA fuel cell produces only about one volt of electricity, so many are stacked to generate enough juice.\u003cbr/\u003eToyota said its new fuel cell vehicle will go on sale in Japan in 2015 and within a year later in Europe and U.S.\u003cbr/\u003eToyota's fuel cell car is a \"concept\" model called FCV that looks like a sleeker Prius gas-electric hybrid.\u003cbr/\u003eHonda, which has leased about two-dozen fuel cell cars since 2005, took the wraps off a futuristic-looking FCEV concept vehicle in Los Angeles.\u003cbr/\u003eHonda executives predict that it will take five years for the hydrogen refueling stations to reach significant numbers outside California, and up to 25 years to go nationwide.\u003cbr/\u003eBut skeptics say hydrogen fueling stations are more expensive than electric car charging stations, partly because electricity is almost everywhere and new and safe ways for producing, storing and transferring\u003cbr/\u003ehydrogen will be needed.\u003cbr/\u003eWednesday, November 20, 2013\u003cbr/\u003eLos Angeles, California\u003cbr/\u003e1.
