Always impressed when I read about the tech Honda managed to pack into our vehicles. Just sharing. Won't ask the scary question of long term maintenance cost of these, as I hope they will last the life of the vehicle! https://tiremeetsroad.com/2019/09/18/internet-marvels-at-multi-link-rear-suspension-of-honda-clarity-engineering-packaging-excellence/

Problem is those open parts get rocks in them too easily, and make utterly atrocious noises when they do.
I hope they implement the knuckle in one of their high volume vehicles; otherwise we're screwed in the future
The Fit EV also had the multi-link instead of the torsion bar found on the gas variants. The Fit needed to make room for the battery pack just like the Clarity for the Fuel Cell (and likely batteries on those versions).
Realistically, your looking at replacing a rubber/neoprene bushing here and there. There’s a boat load of other things on this car I’d be concerned about failing before a suspension component.
