Trim Levels
This year's models include the Plug-in Hybrid, Electric, and Fuel Cell. The first is the most widespread Clarity out there and comes in a base and Touring trim. The Electric and Fuel Cell are both single-trim models, and the latter is limited to California residents who live or work near a hydrogen fueling station. Each tier also features a similar outer design, one that offers an aluminum body adorned with LED lighting systems and variable intermittent windshield wipers. The Plug-in Hybrid further advertises a smart locking function for the driver's side door, while the Electric opts for smart rain-sensing wipers for optimal coverage during wet weather conditions.
Engine
The Plug-in Hybrid runs with a 16-valve four-cylinder engine and electronic continuously variable transmission. These units further pair with a lithium-ion battery and synchronous electric motor, the latter of which returns 181 horsepower and 232 pound-feet of torque. The Electric relies on a high-output electric motor instead, which generates 161 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. The Fuel Cell, however, keeps the same torque but raises horsepower to 174. Both models also opt for a single-speed direct-drive unit for their choice of transmission.
Performance
The Plug-in Hybrid is known for its low carbon footprint, something you can achieve with the help of EV mode control. This feature lets you efficiently switch from gas to electric power when necessary. The Clarity also has the ability to reach a full charge in just 2.5 hours via a 240-volt charging cord. The Electric uses the same cord to power up in 3.1 hours. On the other hand, the Fuel Cell depends on electricity converted from hydrogen to keep it up and running. You'll also feel a bigger aerodynamic push in this vehicle. This is courtesy of front and rear air curtain outlets that help reduce drag and keep you moving forward as intended.
Interior
The Honda Clarity is spacious enough to seat five passengers in each unique model. It keeps comfort a main priority too, thanks to dual-zone climate control and heated front seats. It further features an 8-inch touch screen that lets you access more than 150 SiriusXM satellite radio channels. Depending on the model, you may also find the interior fitted with luxurious trim on the seating surfaces and steering wheel.
Safety Features
This vehicle excels in the safety department as well. In fact, the Honda Clarity comes with rollover-sensing, side-curtain air bags that kick into gear when a collision is detected. It also relies on a multi-angle rearview camera designed for excellent blind spot coverage. In addition, it offers innovative driver-assist features such as lane keep assist and adaptive cruise control. Both are standard and help you better navigate the highway.
