Mazda begins commercial leasing of a hybrid rotary hydrogen vehicle

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Last week, Mazda officially began commercially leasing the Mazda Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid in Japan.

 

This comes from the press release:

 

The Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid is Mazda’s second hydrogen rotary engine model to be commercialized; the first was Mazda’s unique RX-8 Hydrogen RE. The Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid’s finalized specifications were approved by Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) on March 5, 2009. The first vehicles received their registration numbers from the Hiroshima branch of the Chugoku District Transport Bureau on March 25.

Hmm well I guess that's pretty cool.  I don't get very excited about hydrogen cars because of their lack of infrastructure and high cost.  I wonder how much it's leasing for.
