Continuation of the article:
That range comes from the "fast-fill" public station, of which there are just a handful in Southern California, where Honda leases 15 FCX Clarity hydrogen-powered vehicles and is set to distribute more in coming months.
Eight hours of home solar refuelling would guarantee a smaller range of 50km or about 16,000km a year - enough for an average commuting car.
At the Los Angeles research and development centre, engineers refuelled the sleek FCX Clarity sedan with a new single-unit station connected to a solar array that replaces a two-unit system, cutting costs and improving efficiency by 25 per cent.
"This is wonderful progress, the biggest progress," said chief engineer Ikuya Yamashita.

Analysis:
Here is another quote, but again, it’s from the Honda chief engineer. In the entire article, these are the only two sources, and they both work for Honda. There is a lack of representation of any other side of the issue. The journalist is coming across with a negative bias of this product, but there is no source evidence to support that viewpoint.
