Ship your Honda Fit EV with Nationwide!
I’ve been talking a lot about electric vehicles (EVs) lately, and the main reason is that they’re cool and interesting. I talked about the Nissan Leaf the other day. Not to be outdone, in November at the LA Auto Show, Honda announced that it would launch a Fit electric vehicle and new mid-size plug-in hybrid in 2012.
Presumably, the Fit EV will compete directly against the Nissan Leaf, which is currently available. The Honda plug-in hybrid will compete against the Toyota Prius plug-in hybrid, which is also scheduled for launch in 2012.
The latter comparison is not exact, however, since the Prius is a compact car and the new plug-in hybrid will be mid-size. In the US, Honda is currently running an experiment with an Accord plug-in hybrid, and, in Japan, Honda is running a similar series of experiments with an Inspire plug-in hybrid. The Honda car that currently competes head-to-head with the Prius is the Insight hybrid vehicle, but I have not yet heard anything about an Insight plug-in hybrid.
Not to load you down with information, but Honda launched the Fit Hybrid in Japan in October. It is unclear if and when they will launch this car in the US, although they say they plan to launch it in Europe.
The Fit EV fascinates me because I think the Fit is one of the best values on the market today. It’s a small car with a lot of room for people and stuff and it gets pretty awesome mileage, too. My guess is that it will compete very effectively against the Leaf, but both cars look awesome (can’t wait to test drive them!).
In any case, when eventually you get your Fit EV, you will probably need Nationwide Auto Transport at some point. The Fit EV will have a range of only about 100 miles tops, so you won’t be able to drive it across the country. But that’s OK, since Nationwide is your best car shipping choice–for any type of car! We can pick up your car wherever you are in the 48 contiguous states and transport it anywhere in the 48 contiguous states.
