The video above is an interview with Honda at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Honda says they are in position to sell a fuel cell car by the end of 2008. Honda is working on fueling this hydrogen car with a Home Energy Station, which is a mini CHP (combined heat power) unit. Honda also mentions they plan to release a hybrid cheaper than the Civic in 2009. Below the fold is a video of Toyota at the Frankfurt Motor Show in which Toyota says the hybrids being tested in France have an electric only range of 6 10 KM but the second step is a car with an electric-only range of 30-60 KM (60 KM = 37 Miles). Also below the fold is video of a Porsche hybrid from 1899 on display at the Frankfurt Auto Show. It was the first hybrid.
