PerformanceReviewers are surprised by how unsurprising the FCX Clarity feels to drive. Apart from the unusual silence of a vehicle without an internal combustion engine, the Clarity feels much like a conventional Honda sedan to driver and passengers. Its handling feels a bit electronic, some have said, but not so much as to mar the driving experience.
Acceleration and Power
Since the FCX Clarity is powered by an electric motor, it feels much like other electric cars to drive. Reviewers say power comes on smoothly and quickly, but without the shifts associated with an internal combustion engine and a transmission. Acceleration is on par with that of a midsize sedan. Honda says the car manages the equivalent of 68 mpg in combined driving, but no government agency has tested the car's mileage.
Handling and Braking
The handling balance of the FCX Clarity is unremarkable, in that it feels close to what a gasoline-powered Honda sedan offers. The suspension is softly tuned, and the wide stance and long wheelbase make for a comfortable ride, reviewers say. Handling is not sporty, but not remarkably unsporty, either.

ReplyDeleteI think that there is a great excitement around this model I personally like it a lot and I think it definitely is one of the best car releases of the year. I just read in the Electric car buyers guide that Honda will release the next electric model in 2019.
