American Honda Motor Co. announced that Leviton Manufacturing Co., Melville, N.Y., has been selected as Honda's preferred electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) provider for customer and dealer EV charging.

Honda will be introducing two battery-electric vehicles beginning with the 2013 Honda Fit EV this summer, and the Honda Accord Plug-In Hybrid Sedan next winter. The Accord will use an all-new, two-motor hybrid system which continuously moves through three different modes - all-electric, with up to a 15 miles per charge range; gasoline-electric; and direct-drive - to maximize driving and fuel efficiency, especially during city driving.
