Returning the Clarity Electric in the next couple of days. Extended the lease in Oct, but found her replacement quicker than we thought we might (Polestar 2).
Just over 3 years with the Clarity, and just under 5 years with the Fit EV. About 8 years with a blue Honda EV in the garage comes to an end.
Dropped a note to a contact at Honda in the "alternative fuels" division letting him know that we wanted to look at another Honda as our next EV, but...… nothing to see.
His response was they have some things in the works, etc. etc. Even laggards Toyota/Lexus have seen the inevitability and revealed 15 BEV models with a promise of 30 in the next 8 years (by 2030).
He said "Honda isn't going anywhere". That could be taken two ways, but remarkably similar to the attitude of Kodak with the advent of digital cameras. They are still around, but primarily just in name.
The list of 2022 plug in cars from Honda:
In 2023, they will have:
In 2024:
A rebadged GM SUV is in the works.
This does indeed back up the "not going anywhere" statement.
