The price of the car doesn’t really matter as they aren’t for sale. All 1,100 Fit EV’s are available as a three year lease, with no option to buy at the end. They are “compliance cars” to satisfy the California Zero emissions laws. It is assumed that Honda will evaluate and then crush them so they don’t have to produce and stock repair parts for them for ten years.
