Honda releases Clarity Fuel Cell pricing

Honda has released pricing details for its Clarity Fuel Cell vehicle, which will start at around $60,000 in the US.

The five passenger, hydrogen powered sedan is scheduled to go on sale in select California markets before the end of 2016, with the option to lease for under $500 per month.

Honda is expecting limited volumes in early stages of production, with deliveries beginning through certified fuel cell dealers in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento.

John Mendel, executive vice president, automobile division, American Honda, said: "The new Clarity Fuel Cell and Accord Hybrid arriving this year, along with the new plug-in hybrid coming by 2018, are critical steps toward a new generation of Honda advanced environmental vehicles and a true volume pillar for Honda and our product portfolio in the U.S.

"The Clarity Fuel Cell is a potential game changer because it offers an uncompromising, zero emissions customer experience, with performance, utility, range and refuelling time on par with today's gasoline-powered cars."
