Why bother?
Honda must have no real plans of selling any battery electric versions of its Clarity EV as it has just announced that its roughly $35,000 asking price will give you just 80 miles of electric range, according to Automotive News.
So let’s see… we can currently buy a 2016 VW e-Golf for under $30,000 with its 83 mile EPA range, or we can wait a few months and buy the Honda for an extra five grand to go roughly the same distance. Or we can spend $2,500 more than the price of the new Honda for a Chevy Bolt to go well over 200 miles now. The only takers will be Honda diehards, as no one else would possibly consider this.
