Honda Clarity Vehicle Line Expands

One of the Honda brand’s great strengths as an automaker is the drive to stay on the cutting edge of the automotive industry. The company displayed that commitment to lead when they launched the 2017 Honda Clarity Fuel Cell at the end of 2016. At the 2017 New York International Auto Show earlier this month, they upped the ante once again with the debut of the all-new 2018 Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid and the 2017 Honda Clarity Electric.

Steve Center, vice president of the Connected and Environmental Business Development Office at American Honda, discussed the importance of the Honda Clarity vehicle line to the automaker’s overall plan and direction: "Electrification is the future of mobility and the future of Honda, and it all starts now with this new Clarity series.”

Each Honda Clarity vehicle sports a low, wide aerodynamic body with unique design elements and differentiated front styling. Inside, each vehicle in the line offers comfortable seating for five adults. The vehicle interiors feature premium, environmentally responsible materials. That’s all well and good, but how do they drive? You’ll be happy to know that Honda Clarity vehicles provide smooth, quiet, highly refined driving experience thanks to the seamlessness of electric drive torque and acceleration. A full suite of Honda Sensing™ safety and driver-assistive technologies rounds out the incredible technology on display in these next-generation vehicles.

The 2018 Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid is expected to deliver a 42-mile all-electric driving range, with the ability to utilize a hyper-efficient 1.5-liter Atkinson cycle 4-cylinder engine to deliver an overall driving range of more than 330 miles. As for the 2017 Honda Clarity Electric, drivers will be able to fully charge the car in just over three hours at 240 volts for an expected driving range of 120/102/111 MPGe (city/highway/combined).
