  • Honda SmartCharge Beta Program Helps Electric Vehicle Drivers Save Money and Reduce Environmental F

    Honda SmartCharge beta program allows electric vehicle customers to reduce the environmental footprint of charging their car while earning monetary rewards.

Honda is the first automaker to introduce a program of this kind, and will roll out the program to Honda Fit EV customers.

Honda SmartChargeTM permits Fit EV customers to charge when electricity demand is low and when the availability of renewable energy is high.
