Two all-new electrified Honda Clarity models are set
to arrive in New York this April, offering customers a choice between fuel
cell, battery electric and plug-in hybrid technology. The Clarity is set to become
the first vehicle to be available with two choices of electrification, plus a
fuel cell option.
Speaking of diversity, Honda has announced that by the year
2030, two-thirds of its global auto sales will come from electrified vehicles. As for this teaser image just released by Honda, it
shows the Clarity series including the never-before-seen Plug-in Hybrid and the
Clarity Electric flanking the Fuel Cell model.
Honda says that all Clarity versions will provide a
smooth, quiet and premium experience, with "great dynamic handling plus
seamless electric drive torque and acceleration." The Japanese automaker
is also saying that the Clarity Electric will become the first affordable,
midsize, five-passenger battery electric vehicle (BEV) in the world, while the
Plug-in Hybrid model will be the volume leader in the series thanks to an
all-electric driving range rated in excess of 64 km.
