Peder Norby said:I recently spoke to a few Honda execs who visited our home and shared our story, lifestyles, likes (many) dislikes (few) about the car. After spending a few hours with them it is crystal clear to me that they are serious about EVs and planning a future including multiple EVs and PHEV’s in the near future. I am excited about the Honda Accord Plug-In that will produced in mass quantities, and I am optimistic about future EV products from Honda.
Congratulations on the Fit EV. What are you doing about charging? Second EVSE or sharing?leafedbehind said:I just leased a Fit EV...

Regarding cheaper LEAF deals ... remember to take into account the collision insurance that's included on the FIT-EV (IIRC).Kansaisupra said:any new updates how the Fit EV and Nissan Leaf comparisons?
I stuck right in the middle of which one I want. I would rather have the Fit EV based on longer range and "funnest" factor and rarity. But the Leaf deals of how much cheaper they are makes it difficult.
If you only had to pick one car, which one would you take?
Thanks

Two Fit EVs, "Ringo" and "Shenanigan", are available from ZipCar near the InterContinental Hotel in San Francisco.KeiJidosha said:... and ZipCar was to offer the FIT EV in the bay area. ...
Yes, per http://energycenter.org/index.php/incentive-programs/clean-vehicle-rebate-project/cvrp-eligible-vehicles" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.BudRaymond said:Does the FitEV qualify for the california cvrp rebate?
This exactly how BMW did it with the ActiveE as well. The Monroney sticker said nothing about their lease-only program. I believe that both vehicles are considered to be test mules, although the Fit is likely closer to being a production car.cwerdna said:I mentioned it being lease only to a few people who passed by and they were surprised. I told them I had no idea why. Honda could at least do a little better job w/signage or something stating it's lease only.

$259 with nothing down, unlimited miles, and collision is included. And they throw in a free Leviton L2 charger as well.
I'm going to have to test drive one of these now...
