Honda Fit EV, Insight Discontinued

2011-Honda-Fit-EV-007-550x358

It's official: the Honda Fit EV and Insight have been discontinued.

Edmunds reports the Insight will cease production later this summer, while inventory will be available at dealerships through the end of 2014. Meanwhile, the Fit EV — of which 1,100 were ever going to be built for the United States market — will remain in production until sometime this autumn, with Honda providing customer support through each vehicle's lease period.

As for the future, representative Sage Marie said the automaker would focus on "a new generation of electromotive technologies," such as the expanded use of its two-motor hybrid system found in both the Accord Hybrid and Accord Plug-In Hybrid. In addition, a decision will be announced regarding the FCX Clarity, especially with a successor — influenced by the FCEV from last year's LA Auto Show — waiting in the wings.
