Yup, Honda's hydrogen fueled car is looking more toward the future than electric. It's already been out in California since 2010, and is mostly waiting on hydrogen re-fueling stations (it's biggest hold up). They look like a normal car, act like a normal car, but are very green for the enviroment.
Battery cars suck, which is why Honda limited how much they're doing with them. Think about it, 100 miles isn't anything these days, and most battery only systems are limited to about that range (why they suck).

Allow me to break up my response. First the Hybrids, Honda is slowly moving away from hybrids due to the cost of manufacturing along with the rise in the fuel efficiency of their naturally aspirated and turbo vehicles. The more they improve the less sense hybrids make. My 2013 Civic was getting better fuel economy than my friend's 2014 Toyota Prius. (Mr Honda's favorite car is the CR-Z, he always wanted to build a sporty hybrid.. so please don't think that Honda isn't interested in this.)

Electric vehicles, Honda always has one or two at a time. The Accord Electric Hybrid was discontinued because it didn't make sense cost wise. The Fit EV on the other hand makes plenty of sense, however they have only a few areas that the EV can be used in since they need to be plugged in and charging stations aren't part of the norm.

I hope this helps.

Honda will be releasing a 2017 Accord Hybrid. They announced the Demo Date for the 2017 so I'll snag some pictures when they let me :P

I'd be super interested in an electric SUV from Honda, like an electric CRV. Everytime I see one of those Tesla SUVs I wish my CRV was electric and had those sweet eagle-wing doors or whatever theyre called
