Honda Dealers add Charging Stations

August 11, 2017

The infrastructure improvement project will be completed before the arrival of the Clarity Plug-In Electric Hybrid later this winter.

Anticipated average charge time is two and half hours at 240 volts for a full charge of a 17-kilowatt hour (kWh) battery pack.

With an anticipated overall driving range in excess of 530 km and estimated all electric range of 68 km, the Clarity Plug-In Electric Hybrid aims to ease Canadian’s concerns about driving range with a no-compromise alternative fuel vehicle that meets the needs of Honda’s customers today while building the foundation of an electrified future.
