Study shows Insight is MUCH more efficient than hydrogen

[clett]

"The best fuel-cell demonstration car measured by the EPA is the Honda FCX, which gets about 49 miles per kilogram of hydrogen, equal to 80.5 kilometers per kilogram.... the well-to-wheel energy efficiency of the Honda FCX would be 0.57 km/MJ x 22% = 0.12 km/MJ, Honda Insight manages 0.64 km/MJ.
