The conception retains the same hatchback body and five-person along for the ride configuration as the familiar gas-mechanical compact, though it does show modest cosmetic update to the front and rear clips along with only one of its kind five-spoke aluminum wheels. In sport mode, Honda says the Fit EV mimics the acceleration of a small car with a 2.0-liter gasoline engine.
Recharging the Fit EV will take 12 hours on or after a 120-volt outlet and six hours with an s 240-volt make available the ability to exchange a few words with the car via smart phone app is nothing new, but Honda is also touting an exclusive interactive key fob. With the small fob, a driver can view the battery's state of charge, make the first move charging, and activate the climate have power over all without a cell-phone data plan or an Internet association. The Fit EV will use a lithium-ion battery to store electricity and a stimulating motor that has been consequential from the FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle. With a usable range of 70 miles and a top momentum of 90 mph, the Honda Fit EV will fit right in the middle of the rapidly increasing class of small-car electric commuters when it debuts in 2012.
Like the in recent times launched Honda CR-Z hybrid, the Fit EV will have three individual driving modes: econ, normal, and sport. Econ mode will make bigger the driving range by 17 percent compared to the normal mode. On the EPA's LA4 motivating cycle (used by most automaker to measure stimulating-vehicle range) the Fit EV is capable of achieve a 100-mile range. But with the required modification factor those financial records for real-world driving factors, that number is dropped to 70 miles. Honda introduce a concept version of the succession-electric Fit that's set to compete with the Nissan Leaf, the Ford Focus EV, and the Mitsubishi imines at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show.
