The Puyo is a fuel cell vehicle which was designed based on ‘out-of-box’ thinking “to provide fun for both the vehicle owner and people around them as well”.
Also on display will be a model of the i-DTEC next-generation diesel engine, first announced in September at the Frankfurt show.
More important, the redesigned production Fit/Jazz, which will go on sale in Japan in late October, will be displayed. This model is also built in China – from where some go to Europe – and in other parts of Asia.
The redesigned Inspire equipped with a new variable cylinder management system, scheduled to go on sale in Japan later this year, will also be on display.
In addition, a ‘Next Energy’ display will showcase Honda’s latest initiatives in new energy development, including technology for producing bio-ethanol from rice straw and the environmentally responsible next-generation thin-film solar cells, which will go on sale nationwide in Japan.
