New Honda Insight: Is This The Prius Killer?

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

After a short hiatus (production stopped in 2006), Honda has brought back the Insight for all you gas conservationalists. I’m wondering why they stopped production in the first place? My bet is this car flies off the shelves with ease. This car is actually the OG of all hybrid cards and was the first mass produced hybrid starting way back in 1990 (my freshman year of high school). Hah! The original Honda Insight tanked in with an awesome mileage of about 70 mpg. Good lord that is sweeet!

Nice eh? Of course this is a photo of the concept version of the Insight but look for it to be fully unveiled at the Paris Motor Show. With an expected price tag of around $18,000, I’m even thinking of trading in my old 2001 Accord coupe and getting eco friendly with this bad boy!
