5300 miles in, my mom still loves the thing. It will consistently do 370-380 miles on a tank.

we have some 6,600 miles on our clarity and it’s been getting around 52-55 miles on electric only since the temps are up!

I couldnt push my parents into one of those; 52-55 mpg is crazy

it was weird, for us the lease rates were almost identical for an insight touring vs. clarity touring vs. accord hybrid touring... despite the accord and clarity being nearly $10k MSRP more than the insight

How’s the In sight been? My parents are thinking of leasing one for my mom who drives a lot and letting me use the CR-V. Or vice versa because my mom likes the 278hp in the Odyssey and my dad likes his CR-V.

Out of those I'd take the Accord because it still gets literally double the mileage of any of our cars and has 212hp and tons of features and actually looks nice

the clarity and accord have practically the same features and the clarity can go up to 55 miles on electric only... and then acts as a conventional hybrid... that’s why my parents went with it. for them it makes more sense

Yeah, depends on your needs. Me personally I'd be fine with losing some MPG because like I said the mileage is still pretty good and the Accord is a much faster and IMO sleeker car. I think it has a very economically-tuned version of the 2.0 liter 4 in the CTR and Accord 2.0T plus the dual electric motors, might be wrong but either way it's a pretty good car.

ye but you don’t commute 35 miles each way and they have a spare charger... they charge it at work as well and commute on electric

It fits my moms needs perfectly and *knock on wood* hasn’t had any issues besides a quick reflash

Well yeah like I said it depends on your needs, not saying the Clarity isn’t a great car still that has its audience in your parents, I’m just saying which one I’d personally prefer.
