Best Range for Honda Clarity Fuel-Cell
Best Range for Honda Clarity Fuel-Cell-July 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:44

Honda has officially announced that its Clarity fuel-cell vehicle can achieve a range of 589 km.

The hydrogen-powered Honda Clarity fuel-cell vehicle (FCV) has staked its claim with the “best range of any zero emission vehicle” title after Honda announced its official range of 589 km with an equivalent fuel consumption rating of 3.5 L/100km. The Clarity FCV is a 5-seater sedan and its range is more than current zero-emission leaders such as the Tesla Model S (506 km), Toyota Mirai (516 km) and Chevrolet Bolt (383 km).

"Not only does the Clarity Fuel Cell fit five passengers and refuel in three to five minutes, it offers customers a driving range on par with gasoline-powered cars. The Clarity leads the pack with a 589 km driving range rating, and with a growing network of hydrogen stations and fast fuelling time, the zero-emissions family road trip is no longer science fiction" said Steve Center, vice president of the Environmental Business Development Office at American Honda Motor Co., Inc.

The Honda Clarity FCV will go on sale in the US before the end of 2016 and Honda will utilise 12 approved fuel cell dealerships in California to support the Clarity FCV. Honda will also to look to expand on its existing hydrogen fuelling station network in the US in the future.

South Africa has no such infrastructure in place and the Honda Clarity FCV will therefore not be offered in Mzansi.
