Used 2021 Honda Clarity Sedan Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2021 Honda Clarity is available in two basic forms: the Plug-In Hybrid and Fuel Cell. The Clarity Plug-In Hybrid is powered by a 1.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine (212 horsepower, 232 lb-ft) with an electric-motor hybrid system and a 17-kWh lithium-ion battery. On a full charge, the battery provides up to 47 electric-only miles of range. In the Clarity Fuel Cell, the fuel cell assembly turns the hydrogen into electricity, which powers an electric motor (174 hp, 221 lb-ft) and gives it 360 miles of range.
Which Clarity trim does Edmunds recommend?
We suggest going with the Clarity Plug-In Hybrid over its fuel cell sibling. The hydrogen infrastructure is limited and inconvenient, so opting for the plug-in variant gives you the flexibility of a regular hybrid.
