Here in LA Mercedes took the wraps off the Mercedes B Class F-Cell hydrogen fuel cell vehicle for the US market. Never mind that nobody sells hydrogen, but should you get your hands on some of the liquid gold, your B Class will go almost 200 miles on a tankful. Sales information is of course limited but Mercedes did say they would only be available in Southern California and that hydrogen fuel is included in the lease. So if you are lucky enough to find one available, let TTAC know how much your lease payment is.

a car like that will work very well if u're a celebrities, movie stars, needed for political campaign. the rest of us is wiser to stay away from it. make sure u have bought enuf life ins first.
When I attended the Alt-Car expo in Santa Monica, there was an F-Cell B-class there. It worked fine, as in there was little about the experience that screamed 'this is not a normal car!'), but it drove like it had a lead chassis. The packaging of the B-class is what I think will harm it in the US. The rear seat cushion is too low and the cargo room is tight.
