Honda Clarity data analysis

How Honda Clarity EPA electric range varies

Across 12 configurations recorded for the 2017 through 2021 Honda Clarity, EPA electric range runs from 89 miles to 366 miles. The strongest figure belongs to the 2017 Honda Clarity at 366 miles, and the weakest to the 2019 car at 89 miles — a spread of 311%. A gap that wide means the model year and configuration you buy matter more than the nameplate does: quoting a single number for the Honda Clarity would be misleading.

What changed for 2021

Average EPA electric range for the 2021 Honda Clarity is 350 miles, against 350 miles for the 2020 car — it held flat. A carry-over year like this usually means no powertrain or structural change, so an older example is the cheaper way into the same specification.

How to read this Honda Clarity data

This page lists every 2017 through 2021 Honda Clarity record we hold for this measurement — 12 rows in total, one per configuration and model year rather than a single headline figure. Figures are published as the source agency records them: we do not round, average or interpolate missing years, and a year that is absent from the table is a year with no published measurement rather than a zero. Where a manufacturer offered several drivetrains or body styles in the same year, each appears on its own row, because those variants rarely share the same numbers.

Configurations behind these Honda Clarity numbers

The 2017 through 2021 Honda Clarity entries here cover the variants Auto (A1) and Auto (variable gear ratios), 4 cyl, 1.5 L. 2019 is the busiest model year in the record with 3 separate measured configurations, which is why a single quoted EPA electric range figure for that year is rarely the one that matches the car in front of you. Match the row to the exact drivetrain, body style and engine on the window sticker or VIN before relying on the number, and use the comparison links below to see how those same configurations line up against rival models.

Where these Honda Clarity figures come from

Every value on this page is loaded from federal open data — EPA fuel economy submissions, NHTSA vehicle and crash-test records, and manufacturer specification filings — rather than dealer listings or copied editorial content. The Honda Clarity record refreshes as the agencies publish, which typically means new model-year rows appear in the autumn and crash-test results follow through the model year as vehicles are tested. Because certification data is filed per configuration, treat any single headline number for this vehicle with caution: the figure that applies to a specific car depends on its engine, drivetrain, body style and model year, all of which are listed separately above. If a number here disagrees with a brochure, the brochure is usually quoting the best available configuration rather than the one being sold.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clarity EV Range

How far can the Honda Clarity go on a charge?

The Honda Clarity is EPA-rated for up to 366 miles of electric range (2021 model year). Real-world range drops in cold weather, at highway speeds, and with heavy climate control use — plan for roughly 70–80% of the rated figure in winter.

How long does the Honda Clarity take to charge?

Charge times depend on the onboard charger and the outlet used — see the table above for the figures we have verified.
