  • I made the right decision buying the 2018 Honda Clairty instead of waitting for the Tesla Model 3 Standard. This is one of the most practical PHEV for city commuting and long-distance travel in my opinion.
    10:50 Honda Sensing for Stop n Go Traffic
    21:05 Honda Sensing & Semi Auto Driving for Hwy Traffic
    Pros:
    Excellent handling and driving dynamic for a 4000lb PHEV
    Great low end torque (beats most gasoline cars at take off)
    Huge interior space for a PHEV, large trunk space. See my video of how I fitted two road bike in the car and trunk here:
    • How To Fit 2 Bicycles ...
    Very quiet cabin interior
    Excellent Pure EV range (50 miles in warm areas)
    Excellent Hybrid Gas mileage (45+ mpg hwy speed)
    Fast charging speed w/Level 2 charger (less than 5 hr full)
    Awesome for stop n go traffic (with Honda Sensing and Break Hold)
    Awesome for long distance travel (with Honda Sensing and Lane Keeping Assist)
    Decent audio (better than Accord)
    Cons:
    Outdated last generation entertainment system
    Gasoline engine is very noisy when kicks in, most noisy in HV Charge mode
    Reduced trunk pass-thru space because of elevated battery pack in the trunk
    No hitch option without modification to the body panels
    Slow charging speed using Level 1 charger (12hr from empty to full)
    Center console (Gear switches) could be better designed to increase useable space
