National University has acquired 26 Honda Accord Plug-In Hybrids to replace its current vehicle fleet that serves the university’s more than two dozen campuses throughout the state of California, the university announced.

Additionally, California consumers can enjoy a $1,500 state rebate and a $3,626 federal tax credit, along with single occupancy access to high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) carpool lanes.
