Honda Motor Co. has recently revealed leasing options and pricing for its new 2025 CR-V fuel cell electric vehicle, known as the CR-V e:FCEV. This model will be exclusively available for lease to customers in California starting from July 9, with no purchase option provided. The CR-V e:FCEV utilizes the second-generation Honda fuel cell module, developed in collaboration with General Motors, which enhances durability, efficiency, and refinement. Operating like traditional electric vehicles but powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, the CR-V e:FCEV boasts an EPA-estimated driving range of 270 miles and supports plug-in charging for shorter trips. The leasing packages for the CR-V e:FCEV come with various benefits, including yearly hydrogen refilling credits, rental vehicle access, roadside assistance, and eligibility for California's Clean Air Vehicle decal for HOV lane access. Honda is offering three lease terms based on a $50,000 MSRP, with the most popular option being a three-year lease at $459 per month. Additionally, customers can choose from a two-year lease with a higher mileage allowance and a six-year lease at different monthly rates. The CR-V e:FCEV is manufactured at Honda's Performance Manufacturing Center in Ohio, making it the only fuel cell electric passenger vehicle produced in the United States with parts from both domestic and global sources. While fuel cell vehicles represent a small portion of the market, Honda's entry aims to contribute to the growth of sustainable transportation alongside existing models from Toyota and Hyundai. As of now, California leads in hydrogen refueling infrastructure, with 54 stations open for light-duty vehicles, mostly concentrated in Los Angeles county.
