The Fit EV is based on the Fit (we call it the Honda Jazz in Europe) and is part of the company's portfolio of alternative fuel vehicles that includes petrol-electric hybrid, plug-in hybrid, fuel cell-electric and natural gas-powered models.
The car is designed to meet the needs of an average urban commuter with a driving range of 123 miles on a single charge. It will be powered by a 20 kWh lithium-ion battery and a 92 kilowatt coaxial electric motor.
