clarity

Just took possession of a green Clarity (Touring) in Tampa Bay area. Still less than 100 miles. Need to do some electrical work for charging and contemplating going with Level 2. Anyone BTDT? I know that recommended min of 32amp but wonder if 40amp has any advantages or disadvantages. Any recs...

Hello Everyone, I'm interested in optimizing my battery charging routine to maximize the life of the battery. Through the research I've done, it's my understanding that there are several significant variables that need to be considered in order to avoid undo degradation of lithium-ion cells...

Is hondalink available in base models ?

Hey all! I was wondering if anyone knows what sort of weather the box portion of the 120V Charger (that comes with the Clarity) can handle. I know the front end (J1772 plug) can handle rain and such, but I don't have anywhere to hang the actual box part of the charger on the side of my house...

This car's styling is beautiful. It's like a modern day, retro-futuristic styling. A part of me really wishes it was a hatchback, with less of a sloped back. IMG_1612 by Dreamgt posted Jun 7, 2018 at 9:53 AM

So far I love the Clarity plug in!! I have noticed that each time I go to press the brake pedal I hear a slight click. It's always only one click with each press. Does anyone else have this issue?

I rear-ended into a Camry last Saturday. Adaptive cruise control was on, but I was also fully participating. ACC was working all fine, decelerating correctly until a few seconds before the accident. I realized something wrong, kicked the brake to the end, but felt little deceleration at all...

Making a poll to collect some data on the revving/angry bees issue. Multiple members have mentioned that there are instances where they hear angry bees/abnormally high revs from their Clarity, while others have mentioned that even driving in HV mode, their Claritys operate silently, or close in...

Here's a report on a road test I did yesterday on my Clarity. Although I have made the round trip to the Twin Cities a few times, I decided to keep detailed track of mileage and charging (using ChargePoint chargers) so I could calculate exact energy usage. Here's what I experienced: 1. I filled...

I came across this link that shows you the training/coaching Honda gives its sales staff about the Clarity Plug-in Hybrid. Now you know what they're trained to say: https://salestraining.honda.com/en/Clarity-Family/2018-Clarity-Plug-In-Hybrid

All; Those who are interested , the 32 amp charger is at very good price $ 666/- on Amazon. See link below if you are interested. I would have bought it , but have to wait for the car to arrive first so that I can get VIN and then if I buy , I will get government rebate of 50%...

Hi everyone, I am very interested in the Honda Clarity. It sounds like it has everything I want in a PHEV - very decent range for my needs (daily work round trip is 40 miles) and from all accounts sounds comfortable to drive. I even signed up for a long test drive via Honda's Clarity Drive...

Hi All, I am a very happy Clarity owner. I am very lucky to have a free level 2 charger at work (chargePoint) and also installed a level 2 charger at home. Is there anyway to tell what kW the car is currently charging at via the car dash or Honda app? I ask as I installed a non-wifi...

The Drive drove the Clarity Plug-In Hybrid in NYC and liked almost everything but its looks.

Let's say I am planning to drive 700km mostly on freeway( 424 miles ) , stay over night at motel for 2 days and then return trip back , another 700km. total driving 1400km ( 850 miles) Hoping that will not find charging station at motel most likely and have to fill up gas for at least two...

Hello; as we all know this car is eligible for the green license plate in Ontario , Canada. To best of my knowledge , we can drive alone on HOV lane in entire Ontario HOV lane ,is it ? Also I heard that Ministry of Transportation will remove green plate users from HOV lane in future in year or...

Does any one know oil change frequency for clarity and does the computer shoes up on screen when to change, based on viscosity of oil ? Thanks

One of the continuing issues we have with our Clarity is the terrible call quality for whoever happens to be on the other end of the call via bluetooth. There is just this constant background noise. I am going to attempt to share a message my wife left me to demonstrate the problem, but just...

Does anyone have a general estimate of how many miles each bar of the gas gauge represents? Like, when the gas gauge gets to one bar, how far can you go, or should you immediately get gas? I ask because I am on the phone with my wife as she tries to get home after a long-ish drive. She just...

Hi just joined the forum after buying a Clarity this past week. I've looked all through the manual and asked the Honda service department these questions before taking the vehicle home but still don't have answers to these questions. I have friends and family who are electrical engineers and...
